I've got a-achin' in my heart, arson on my mind
I'm gonna burn your playhouse down
I've got a badly broken heart, yes, I've had it from the start
You've given me the run around

Now if you play with fire it's a-sure to burn
I've heard you told him a lie
So be on your way, I've had my say
Well honey, I'm through with you for now

You'll find there's one in every yard and I'm a-gettin' mighty tired
I'm gonna burn your playhouse down

--- Instrumental ---

I've got a-achin' in my heart, arson on my mind
I'm gonna burn your playhouse down
I've got a badly broken heart, I've had it from the start
You've given me the run around

Now if you play with fire it's a-sure to burn
I've heard you told him a lie
Go on, be on your way, well honey, I've had my say
'Cause I'm through with you for now

I've got an achin' in my heart, arson on my mind
I'm gonna burn your playhouse down

--- Instrumental ---

Now, don't pretend that this is the end
'Cause this time we're really through
While you're runnin' around burnin' up the town
Well, I set my cap for you

I'm gonna burn your playhouse down
