Tinderbox Man Lyrics by Thrashing Doves

Bedrock Vice

0

In this tinderbox world with a match in his hand
He's off to settle a backstreet store
Sign on the window: "Business as Usual"
Despite the law
Show me a man without a mask
I'll show you his disguise
A fitting end for a fire raiser
To burn in another man's fire
Oh, father's in the basement
Mixing a concrete tomb
For mother waiting upstairs in her room
The children have the answers
But there are none I can use
To take away the pallbearer blues
Ooh-ooh...
Hey, well
Sitting on a time bomb thinking it's Eden
It can give a man an evil thirst
He's made some pretty good movies
With some pretty nasty scenes
We've still to witness the worst
Oh, I've never wished death on anyone
I've never felt this way before
A fitting end for a promoter of death
To die in another man's war
Oh, father's in the basement
Mixing a concrete tomb
For mother waiting upstairs in her room
The children have the answers
But there are none I can use
To take away the pallbearer blues
Oh, hey, whoo!
