Now come and stand
See the sights and warm your hands
And fan the flame inside of meBeen burning all my life
So come and set my house alight
Yeah, come and set my spirit freeNow all is ashes
This moribund parade of asses
So shake it one more time for meSo take these matches off of me
And set yourself on fireFireCoffee at the floor
It seemed just like the day before
The waiter winked and smiled at meThe couple at the bar
He burned his britches, she burned her bra
Now somebody has burned the carSulphur in the air
And cracks appearing everywhere
Don't try to stop it, don't you dareNow see,
That everything must fall that we may live againSo take these matches off of me
And set yourself on fireFire
Fire
FireNow it's so clear to me
This bonfire of the vanities
So come on everybody, screamA purifying flame
And you and I can take the blame
A spirit that cannot be tamedNow see,
That everything must fall that we may live againSo take these matches off of me
And set yourself on fireFire [x7]
