 Rate Burning Down
Artist : R. e. m.
Song : Burning down
(berry/buck/mills/stipe)
From the back of my neck, oh, oh, oh
Wired a glass jaw, oh, oh
Plantation burning your boat is coming in
Strum your jew’s-harp, you’re reeking gin
(chorus)
Running water in a sinking boat
Going under but they’ve got your goat
Burning down - my hands are tied my feet are
bound
Burning down - can’t you see that my hands are
bound
Johnny mike is reading in the yard
His story’s timely, oh, oh, oh
What river is it anyway, radio
Not in a boat, in your ear
(repeat chorus)
You pick your island in the sun
Take your island off he’s got a gun
Burning down - my hands are tied my feet are
bound
Burning down - can’t you see that my hands are
bound
He’s cooking in the woods, a brush fire in your
neck
Feeling mighty mighty, oh, oh, oh
You can pick your island in the sun
Take your island off he’s got a gun
(repeat chorus)
