Thought I was doing well
I moved into her country
The borderlines were broken
But when I got to her bridge
She wouldn't let me cross
As I tried to put in my token
It's a matter of time
Won't you give me a break
The battles lost I've earned my take
My lips are puckered and my buckles undone
So surrender your love lets have some fun
(Chorus)
Scorched Earth Polly
It's you I desire
I'm taking love
She's talking fire
Scorched Earth Polly
Won't you take out the lead
Cause every time I try
You burn the goddamned bed
Scorched Earth Polly
Always on the retreat
And if you get close
You'll burn, you'll toast, you'll fry, you'll roast
Scorched Earth Polly
Will set you on fire
I came ready this time
I brought my hose my extinguisher and fire fighting clothes
When I got to her house the whole place was a blaze
So I worked three nights and I worked four days
Gave her my best, put out the fire, felt real good
I could feel her desire
I was waiting to see what pretty Polly would do
So I called her name as I busted through
Scorched Earth Polly caught me by surprise
Hypnotized me with her fiery eyes
No matter how much I try it's always the same
On one side there's holy love on the order... Unholy flame
