[Intro]
Pardon me while I burst
Pardon me while I burst
[Verse 1]
A decade ago
I never thought I would be
At twenty-three
On the verge of spontaneous combustion
Woe is me
But I guess that it comes with the territory
An ominous landscape of never ending calamity
I need you to hear
I need you to see that I have had all that I can take
And exploding seems like a definite possibility to me
[Chorus]
So pardon me while I burst into flames
I've had enough of the world and its people's mindless games
So pardon me while I burn and rise above the flame
Pardon me, pardon me, I'll never be the same
[Verse 2]
Now two days ago
I was having a look in a book
And I saw a picture of a guy fried up above his knee
I said, "I can relate!"
Because lately I've been thinking of combustication
As a welcomed vacation
From the burdens of the planet earth
Like gravity, hypocrisy, and the perils of being in 3D
But thinking so much differently
[Chorus]
So pardon me while I burst into flames
I've had enough of the world and its people's mindless games
So pardon me while I burn and rise above the flame
Pardon me, pardon me, I'll never be the same
Never be the same, yeah
Pardon me while I burst into flames
Pardon me, pardon me, pardon me
[Chorus]
So pardon me while I burst into flames
I've had enough of the world and its people's mindless games
So pardon me while I burn and rise above the flame
Pardon me, pardon me, I'll never be the same
Pardon me, never be the same, yeah
