Lyrics
0:43Bums rushed out the door
0:45Momma didn't want you anymore
0:47A thornless rose in her side
0:49A burden despite being bonded by blood lines
0:52It wasn't the right time
0:54She said no more free load
0:56This is the end of the freak show
0:59Half shaved and heart broke
1:00Half slewed and half snapped
1:02A rat trap snapping back
1:04Hand bone hand me down
1:05Baloney sandwich lonely clown
1:07Smoke laugh toke craft
1:09Porn blood piss grass
1:11Kiss miss heart hand
1:12Tried to take a stand
1:14Down dropped sales low
1:16The joys and woes
1:17The curtains slowly close
1:24Burning down the house to smoke them out
1:31I was on the brink like so many times
1:34Got children and wives waving forks and knives
1:38Burning down the house the dead girl shouts
1:45Burning down the house to smoke them out
1:51The new sound circles round
1:55Slaughter raging death dice fall hot house burn down
1:59Foes upon foes west to east it goes
2:02The dead girl says let's just be friends
2:05In the glorious tone of marrow and bone
2:08These days of ore
2:10The chance we meet once more
2:13The smoke lightning crack asunder
2:16The peel of guns and the boom of thunder
2:21Burning down the house to smoke them out
2:27I was on the brink like so many times
2:31Got children and wives waving forks and knives
2:35Burning down the house the dead girl shouts
2:41I was on the brink like so many times
3:29Burning down the house to smoke them out
3:36Burning down the house the dead girl shouts
3:43Burning down the house to smoke them out
3:50Burning down the house the dead girl shouts
3:57Burning down the house to smoke them out
4:03Burning down the house the dead girl shouts
4:10Burning down the house to smoke them out
4:17Burning down the house the dead girl shouts
Bums rushed out the door Momma didn't want you anymore A thornless rose in her side A burden despite being bonded by blood lines It wasn't the right time She said no more free load This is the end of the freak show Half shaved and heart broke Half slewed and half snapped A rat trap snapping back Hand bone hand me down Baloney sandwich lonely clown Smoke laugh toke craft Porn blood piss grass Kiss miss heart hand Tried to take a stand Down dropped sales low The joys and woes The curtains slowly close Burning down the house to smoke them out I was on the brink like so many times Got children and wives waving forks and knives Burning down the house the dead girl shouts Burning down the house to smoke them out The new sound circles round Slaughter raging death dice fall hot house burn down Foes upon foes west to east it goes The dead girl says let's just be friends In the glorious tone of marrow and bone These days of ore The chance we meet once more The smoke lightning crack asunder The peel of guns and the boom of thunder Burning down the house to smoke them out I was on the brink like so many times Got children and wives waving forks and knives Burning down the house the dead girl shouts I was on the brink like so many times Burning down the house to smoke them out Burning down the house the dead girl shouts Burning down the house to smoke them out Burning down the house the dead girl shouts Burning down the house to smoke them out Burning down the house the dead girl shouts Burning down the house to smoke them out Burning down the house the dead girl shouts
