Burning Down the House (Live) Lyrics

[Intro: Chris Frantz]
Who got a match?

[Verse 1]
Ah
Watch out
You might get what you're after
Cool, babies!
Strange but not a stranger
I’m an ordinary guy
Burning down the house

[Verse 2]
Hold tight
Wait 'til the party's over
Hold tight
We’re in for nasty weather
There has got to be a way
Burning down the house

[Chorus 1]
Here's your ticket, pack your bag
It's time for jumping overboard
Transportation is here
Close enough but not too far
Maybe you know where you are
Fighting fire with fire
Ah

[Verse 3]
All wet
Here, you might need a raincoat
Shakedown
Dreams walking in broad daylight
Three hundred sixty-five degrees
Burning down the house

[Chorus 2]
It was once upon a place
Sometimes I listen to myself
Gonna come in first place
People on their way to work
Say, "Baby, what did you expect?"
Gonna burst into flame
Go ahead

[Instrumental Bridge]
Burning down the house

[Verse 4]
My house
'S out of the ordinary
That's right
Don't want to hurt nobody
Some things sure can sweep me off my feet
Burning down the house

[Chorus 3]
No visible means of support
And you have not seen nothing yet
Everything's stuck together
I don't know what you expect
Staring into the TV set
Fighting fire with fire
Ah

[Instrumental Outro]
Burning down the house
Burning down the house
Burning down the house
