Five years since you went away
Hurts like it was yesterday
I play with fire and you? re gonna pay
Lord knows I am tired of payin?
I am sick of livin? in the past
You took my heart and I want it back
You were my first but you didn? t last
You just caused me frustration
Tonight I am gonna set myself free
I? ve got a brand new recipe
And it? s a, a can or two of gasoline
One match and a mighty a big flame
All the heartache and sufferin?
Is gonna melt inside of me
A picture book and a pile of your clothes
You and me goin? up in smoke
A sure fire way of lettin? go
Yeah, nothin? burns like a memory
I? ve got a bottle of 80 proof
I? ll tell you what we? re gonna do
Well, it? s a two for me and one for you
Honey, here? s to liberation
No more pain and misery
I finally found my remedy
And it? s a, a can or two of gasoline
One match and a mighty a big flame
All the heartache and sufferin?
Is gonna melt inside of me
A picture book and a pile of your clothes
You and me goin? up in smoke
A sure fire way of lettin? go
Yeah, nothin? burns like a memory
Burn, baby, burn
Burn, baby, burn
Burn, baby, burn
Burn, baby, burn
You take a, a can or two of gasoline
One match and a mighty a big flame
All the heartache and sufferin?
Is gonna melt inside of me
A picture book and a pile of your clothes
You and me goin? up in smoke
A sure fire way of lettin? go
Yeah, nothin?, ooh, nothin?, oh, nothin?
Oh, burns like a memory
