lyrics

This towns like a ship that was built to sink,
Taking on water while they pass around drinks,
Too busy to notice the whole structures unsound
wearing their delusion like a dislodged crown
The band's on the deck playing boldly on,
Waters hell on a cello, but you've got to finish the song.
Our song is over, baby, I'm through with this crew,
When the horse has broken both legs, well you know what to do.....

Chop, Chop cherie,
Pass the Kerosene,
The engines are turning and we're picking up steam
Tonight's the night,
we'll set the town alight,
The towers will tumble and we'll dance by the light
Its them or us if you know what I mean
And here's to us, baby...

Now pass the kerosene

The carnivals marked the games are all rigged,
the banker, the broker, the mayor the pigs,
Not so much a town as a broken merry-go-round
She keeps on twisting and drilling herself right into the ground
we're all on the ride, and we're running out of time
i'm stopping it here its the end of my line
you can stay on the tracks she's going straight to hell
i'll kiss you goodbye, i'll be ringing the bell

Chop, chop, cherie,
Pass the Kerosene,
The engines are turning and they're picking up steam
TOnight's the night,
we'll set the town alight,
The towers will tumble and we'll dance by the light
theres only one way out when you've seen what i've seen
So here's to us, baby...

Now pass the kerosene
