k-os - Burning Bridges Lyrics

(Now dance, friends! This is what we do for all the century)

I don't really care that I'm burning some bridges
We don't need no water, let it burn to the ground
Some might fear, some of them are superstitious
But my ear is to the ground and I walk the streets downtown

It's just the same old story
It's such a different story
It's just the same old story
It's for the game

When I was a young boy
I always seemed to care what they thought about me
But now I'm all grown up and I make my own choice
I will be standing tall, dropping down on my feet

I don't really care ‘cause I'm burning some bridges
We don't need no water, let it burn to the ground
Some might fear, some of them are superstitious
But my ear is to the ground ‘cause I walk the streets downtown
downtown, downtown

Downtown…
I be wearing the crown, it's downtown
Turn on the light
‘Cause your left hand knows what you're doing with your right
When the right hand glows, left is jealous of the light
So you put them both together and you clap for your life
Time, that's why I'm back in the building
Convert the flame the fame that I was building
Get off the bridge, all the women and children
Fire code, sheep in wolf's clothes

I don't really care ‘cause I'm burning some bridges
We don't need no water, let it burn to the ground
Some might fear, some of them are superstitious
But my ear is to the ground ‘cause I walk the streets downtown
downtown, downtown

Who would think that you would be the one to bring this on
Who would think that you would be the one to break my heart
I don't care what they say
You're my girl anyway
If the truth sets you free
What's the use if you're not for me?

ooh ooh ooh x2
