Burnin’ Lyrics by Caleb Von

Tales of Glory

2023

[Verse 1]
Dead coyote on the side a' the road
Train cars burnin' from coast to coast
News folk talkin' 'bout a UFO
And I still can't buy no smokes
[Verse 2]
And my mama said
"Son, quit singin' 'bout the drugs you do
We both know you ain't got a bone in you
That'll roll that tobacco and puff them fumes
'Cause all you ever knew
[Chorus]
Is how to run your mouth
Piss off the neighbors and play real loud
Just run your mouth
And sing all through this house"
[Post-Chorus]
And I said "Oh
Well, the way I see it, you
You just don't get
That if the whole world's burnin', I'm damn sure burnin' too
[Verse 2]
Chuch bells ringin' for the comin' a' Christ
World war brewin' like a Miller Lite
'Cause Bud done found himself a Hell of a fight
And I still can't find my lighter
[Verse 3]
And the preacher said
"Boy, ain't you a church boy too?
Ain't you got a darn thing better to do
Than roll that tobacco and puff thеm fumes?"
I said, "All you ever knеw
[Chorus]
Was how to run your mouth
Piss off the people and the play to the crowd
Just run your mouth
And preach your own damn route"
[Post-Chorus]
And I said "Oh
Well, the way I see it
Jesus ain't the stuck-up coward you wish he was"
[Verse 4]
Karma come knockin' like the angel a' death
Holdin' down the dollar 'til its last breath
And the Lord gon' see to its final rest
'Cause the tree's on fire and the fire's burnin' higher
Little birdie gotta leave the next
[Verse 5]
Smoke clouds blockin' out the sun and the moon
You paid for the poison, now you're breathin' it too
This land of the free is still controlled by the few
And the vote's on fire, little birdie fly higher
And you just might see that too
[Post-Chorus]
And I said "Oh
Well, the way I see it
Evil ain't the big bad secret it used to be
Not the helpless vision we used to see
Not the same scared people who bend the knee"
