Only you can:
Make a fool of yourself
Fix this mess
Prevent forest fires

Smokey the bear can't save me now
I'm gonna need to leave this one behind
She stood by the forest with sad, sad eyes

And just as I'm tracking the miles
A molotov cocktail fell thru my sun roof
And I got scared
Suddenly I look a lot
Like smokey the carnival bear (set free, and your love is anemic...)

I told her, I wouldn't care
I just need to cut out all the extra ****.
Flicking lighters
Just to show it's lit
Let yourself see the amazing animal inside
A heart of compassion, winnow that pride

Whatever she does,
You were the one
So act like it
