Steve Roche - Children Play With Matches lyrics

Children play with matches start a fire(x2) Don't ever do what you're told The old are just old Children play with matches start a fire Children play with fire, tend a blaze(x2) You know where he keeps his drinks And lots of poisons under the sink Children play with fire, tend a blaze (Chorus) The world is dry and brittle and dead It'll go up in a flash If we mix it all together, oh what a colorful blast! Only shout when spoken to Curse your way through church and school And mess around with father's power tools.(x2) Children play beyond the "Keep Out" signs(x2) And if the owners send you home It's bottles, rocks, and stones Children play beyond the "Keep Out" signs Chorus Children lead us to the lake of fire FIRE(x2) And as we drive down into the flames Maybe I'll let you hold the reigns Children lead us to the lake of fire(x2) Children play with matches, start a fire(x2) Just a little gasoline and watch the people scream... Children play with matches start a fire
