lyrics

I am really sorry
I am out of things to do
I tried to clean my house but now the whole thing is on fire
All my friends will hate me for what I´m about to do
But I don´t really care no more
Unless you ask me to

Fill your heart with oil
And pass me a lighter
you´re on the upper floor
We have seen this stuff before

Fill your heart with oil
And pass me a lighter
You´re next up in the line
Act cool and you´ll be fine

I am very lonely, I am bitter, I am sad
I´m hoping that today will go away (just like your dad)
I know one day I´ll get a job and have two screaming kids
Then I´ll go on a power trip just to see how it feels

Fill your heart with oil
And pass me a lighter
you´re on the upper floor
We have seen this stuff before

Fill your heart with oil
And pass me a lighter
You´re next up in the line
Act cool and you´ll be fine

Save me from myself
I like you, you know
But I have nothing left, nothing more
To show for my
Lack of thorough reflection

I want to kiss you on the lips
I know you don´t mind my company
And you know that I am crazy
I just want to be with you all day, everyday

You said I don´t need friends and I have to agree
We are two and we don´t need to be three
I love you, my baby
Help me, I´m scared

Shady van across the street
So conspicious
The man inside my house is looking for things that are worth much
More than what he already has in his bank account
I am scared and lonely
Someone please just get me out

Fill your heart with oil
And pass me a lighter
you´re on the upper floor
We have seen this stuff before

Fill your heart with oil
And pass me a lighter
You´re next up in the line
Act cool and you´ll be fine

Take me on, give it here
Allow me to breathe
Knowing I was in the wrong

No one dares to get out
Without knowing the vast consequenses
Of being alone

Take me on, give it here
Allow me to breathe
Knowing I was in the wrong

No one dares to get out
Without knowing the vast consequenses
Of being alone

Take me on, give it here
Allow me to breathe
Knowing I was in the wrong

No one dares to get out
Without knowing the vast consequenses

Instrumental Music 1
by Craig Fortnam

supported by 4 fans who also own “Pass Me a Lighter”

Craig Fortnam is well known for being the creative mastermind behind names like "Shrubbies", "North Sea Radio Orchestra", "Arch Garrison", and, well, "Craig Fortnam", of course. He's from the big family of musicians and composers revolving around the cult band "Cardiacs", all of which share some undeniable and hard-to-describe common quality in their songwriting. "Instrumental Music 1" is quite some unspecific title for the wide range of unique avantgarde tracks he has released only recently. Sven B. Schreiber (sbs)
