(Pardon me while I burst, pardon me while I burst.)

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 I can take and

exploding seems like a definite possibility to me.

So pardon me while I burst into flames.

I've had enough of the world and it's 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.

Not two days ago, I was having a look in a book

and I saw a picture of a guy fried up above his knees.

I said, “I can relate,” 'cause 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 3-D...

And thinking so much differently.

Pardon me while I burst into flames.

I've had enough of this world, and it's 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.

Pardon me while I burst into flames.

Pardon me, pardon me, pardon me...

So pardon me while I burst into flames.

I've had enough of the world and it's 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... I'll never be the same, yeah.

But at the end of the trying day

We says it's ok and we puff away
