Sitting in my skyscraper Watching the world burn Just sitting here, untouched On the flaming globe I earned
I sit back in my skyscraper Pull the blinds and shut my eyes I think of what is left In the world that I despise
Oh, yes! The flames are coming Reaching far and wide And they're faster and they're hotter Than your mail-order bride Oh, yes! The flames are coming Taller than you'd think And they'll burn you to a golden crisp Before you've time to blink
High up in my skyscraper I know the outcome’s wrong And it never would’ve come to this If the world all got along
I know I’ve earned this skyscraper Because it’s the slowest death Yes, I’ve earned the prolonged agony And I’ll wait for my last breath
Oh, yes! The flames are coming Reaching far and wide And they're faster and they're hotter Than your mail-order bride Oh, yes! The flames are coming Taller than you'd think And they'll burn you to a golden crisp Before you've time to blink
Sitting in my skyscraper Watching as I burn I sit here as I’m touched By the flaming death I’ve earned
The flames consume my skyscraper I’m falling from the skies And I’m all that is left In the world that I despise
Oh, yes! The flames are coming Reaching far and wide And they're faster and they're hotter Than your mail-order bride Oh, yes! The flames are coming Taller than you'd think And they'll burn you to a golden crisp Before you've time to blink
