I'm happy to report    my long standing last resort   ended just 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      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 gunna 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      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 gunna make the evening news.   And I'm gunna 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 and it's all ending soon   and I'm gunna make the evening news      Yeah I'm gunna make the evening news.   Yeah I'm gunna make the evening news.
