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
