Burning Down the House lyrics by Talking Heads

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

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

Here's your ticket pack your bag
Time for jumpin' overboard, transportation is here
Close enough but not too far
Maybe you know where you are, fightin' fire with fire

All wet, hey you might need a raincoat
Shakedown, dreams walking in broad daylight
Three hundred sixty five degrees
Burning down the house


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

My house is 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

No visible means of support
And you have not seen nothing yet, every thing's stuck together
And I don't know what you expect
Staring into the TV set, fighting fire with fire
