lyrics

There's an old cabin at the end of the road
Nobody's lived there for years
There was an old man that used to,
But it seems that he's switched careers
Now he's pushing up roses at the graveyard
Next to the granny of Mikey Mcguire

So I lit the fire
I lit the fire

Everybody's living in the city
Nobody lives around here
The place was wet as a dog, the only thing in my pocket
Was a letter from my baby last year,
It said, "Johnny be good while I'm gone,
I'll be true you've got nothing to fear"

So I lit the fire
I lit the fire

I didn't think that I could light it
But decided not to fight it or go crazy with "I think I can"s
I went flick, flick flick with my $1.10 Bic
'Til a little flame started to dance
You can Google me, baby, but I won't be at that old address anymore

'Cause I lit the fire
I lit the fire
