Burn, burn house on fire
I'm so sick and tired
I can still remember your sound
It is cut, cut, cutting me down
I'm locked and loaded
You're so milk and roses
And I am just a letdown of your hound
It is cut, cut, cutting me down
Like slow poison
Cut down, like slow poison

Sing me one more hymnal
I have found my angel
A-a-and she walks upon the ground
It is cut, cut, cutting me down
On empty can
I'm a stranger in a strange, strange land
Gone, gone, just gone without a sound
It is cut, cut, cutting me down
Like slow poison
Cut down, like slow poison

And all my dreams are only dreams
And all my schemes are only schemes
And if this is my punishment
Then I want my card to fit

Do do do-do-do do do
Do do do-do-do do do
Do do do-do-do do do
Do do do-do-do do do

Burn, burn house on fire
I'm so sick and tired
I can still remember your sound
It is cut, cut, cutting me down
Like slow poison
Cut down, like slow poison
It's cutting me

Do do do-do-do do do
Do do do-do-do do do (Like slow poison)
Do do do-do-do do do
Do do do-do-do do do

Sing me one more hymnal
I have found my angel
A-a-and she walks upon the ground
It is cut, cut, cutting me down
On empty can
