[Verse 1] One day in a big ol' city an apple tree did grow And what grew there beside it was a rose You can hear your friends all say it there from down below What will they say about us now? [Chorus] What will they say about us now? Now that we've gone out paintin' the town Fruit and flies and bees all buzzin', burning cities to the ground What will they say about us now? [Verse 2] A baby in a stroller carriage, a car parked in the drive A bank account all full up to retire You can hear your family say it, over on the side What will they say about us now? [Chorus] What will they say about us now? Now that we've gone out painting the town The tires are flat, the baby's cryin', burning cities to the ground What will they say about us now? [Bridge] I don't know but I've been told That you and I are like gas and flame But I don't hear it ‘cause when I'm near you You're a blazin' fire the world can't tame Yes, you are a blazin' fire the world can't tame [Chorus] What will they say about us now? Now that we've gone out painting the town The tires are flat, the baby's cryin', burning cities to the ground What will they say about us now? Oh I said, what will they say about us now?
