Malachi Richter's Liquor's Quicker

"My actions should be self-explanatory, and since in our self-obsessed culture words seldom match the deed, writing a mission statement would seem questionable. So judge me by my actions. Maybe some will be scared enough to wake from their walking dream state"

Well I'm happy to report
my long standing last resort
ended by just stopping short
of me burning like a torch
step off, stand back
'cause it's a fact I've got a match
and all my fingers crossed behind my back

Chorus:
Give me some breathing room
'cause I'm breathing fumes, I'll light the fuse
give me some breathing room
'cause there's something that I need to prove
give me some breathing room
'cause I'm breathing fumes, I'll light the fuse
and I'm gonna make the evening news

Well I'm busy making plans
with a flare gun in my hand
kerosene soaked through my pants
the last words of my last stand
step up, step back
'cause it's a fact I've got a match
and all my fingers crossed behind my back

(Chorus)
and I'm gonna make the evening news

Give me some breathing room
'cause I'm breathing fumes, I'll light the fuse
give me some breathing room
'cause there's something that I need to prove
give me some breathing room
cause I'm breathing fumes, I'll light the fuse
give me some breathing room
I'm on fire, it's all ending soon
and I'm gonna make the evening news
yeah, I'm gonna make the evening news
yeah, I'm gonna make the evening news GNV FLA
