Pardon me while I burst, pardon me while I burst

A decade ago, I never thought I would be

A 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 its 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 the world

And it's people's mindless games

Pardon me while I burn and rise above the flame

Pardon me, pardon me, I'll never be the same

Never be the same, yeah



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, never be the same, yeah
