She doesn't like it when I smoke
Or give the fire a friendly stoke
And when the sun is burning down
We sit in the shade
She says she looks like Frankenstein
I tell her that she looks just fine
It always gives her peace of mind
When I say these words to her
Burn Victim Girl
I love you with feeling
Burn Victim Girl
You are appealingYou quit the band and got a job
Decided to take a wife
Then you stood still
And I went on
And almost lost my life
No I don't wanna be in your shoes
And I don't wanna read local news
And though I know we had the same views
Who's the fool?
Try and keep your head above the waves
Try and tell yourself that you're safe
I know you do your best to keep faith
So round and round we go
It's a shame
Oh but you never know
There you go praised again
Your head pressed against the glass
You always tried to put me down
But I knew that it couldn't last
Cause I don't wanna be in your shoes
And I don't wanna read local news
And though I know we had the same views
Who's the fool
Try 'n keep your head above the waves
Try and tell yourself that you're safe
I know you do your best to keep faith
So try and keep your head above the waves
Oh, feels so good
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
I knew it would
Oh it just don't mean that much anymore oh
