Burning Down Lyrics by REM

Burning Down Lyrics

    ]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

    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

    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

    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

    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
