lyrics

PLAYHOUSE

Little Johnny came to town
Started pushing us around
He was sharp and he was sly
He would sure make the venom fly
He was smug in what he’d done
Told us he was the chosen one
Said we shouldn’t bite the hand
But I say consequence be damned

Gonna burn your playhouse down
Gonna burn it right to the ground
Gonna burn your playhouse down
Gonna burn it right to the ground

Jack be nimble, Jack be quick
Jack jump over the candle stick
Bring the flame towards the beast
Gasoline will bring release
Let me tell you this my friend
It’s more fun than a poison pen
Nero fiddled as Rome burned
Music’s on now it’s Johnny’s turn

Gonna burn your playhouse down
Gonna burn it right to the ground
Gonna burn your playhouse down
Gonna burn it right to the ground

You’re so vain you probably think this song is about you
You’re so strange you think every single song is about you
You’re insane if you think I wrote this song just about you
You’re deranged if you thought I’d waste my time screaming at you

Gonna burn your playhouse down
Gonna burn it right to the ground
Gonna burn your playhouse down
Gonna burn it right to the ground
