Lyrics for Pardon Me

Pardon me while I burst Pardon me while I burst A decade ago, I never thought I would be At 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 an imminent 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 knee I said, I can relate 'Cause lately I've been thinking of combustication as a welcome vacation from The burdens of the planet Earth Like gravity, hypocrisy and the perils of being in 3D But thinking so much differently, 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 Never be the same 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 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, pardon me Never be the same, yeah
