Malachi Richter’s Liquor’s Quicker

Lyrics

[Intro] 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 [Verse 1] 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 to match And all my fingers crossed behind my back [Chorus 1] Give me some breathing room 'Cause I'm breathin' fumes, I'll light the fuse Give me some breathing room 'Cause there's somethin' that I need to prove Give me some breathing room 'Cause I'm breathin' fumes, I'll light the fuse And I'm gonna make the evening news [Verse 2] 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 gotta match And all my fingers crossed behind my back [Chorus 1] Give me some breathing room 'Cause I'm breathin' fumes, I'll light the fuse Give me some breathing room 'Cause there's somethin' that I need to prove Give me some breathing room 'Cause I'm breathin' fumes, I'll light the fuse And I'm gonna make the evening news [Bridge] And I'm gonna make the evening news [Chorus 2] Give me some breathing room 'Cause I'm breathin' fumes, I'll light the fuse Give me some breathing room 'Cause there's somethin' that I need to prove Give me some breathing room 'Cause I'm breathin' 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 [Outro] Yeah I'm gonna make the evening news Yeah I'm gonna make the evening news
