My Neighbor Burns Trash

Lyrics

> My neighbor burns trash In a barrel out back And on a mighty fine day There's a toxic haze around my house A-my house, a-my house, a-my house A mighty fine way To mess up a mighty fine day My neighbor burns trash In a barrel out back Show's up at my door With a pizza and a bible Preachin' 'bout sin, salvation and survival Talking' 'bout the fires Of the a-pork-alypse I could see the flames Comin' right off her lips She said "I got a pack a matches And a pile a' leaves Three bags a-garbage And some gasoline Got a plastic jug And some cellophane Burn anything That can't run away" Her outlook was pretty grim And I happen to live downwind My neighbor burns trash In a barrel out back And on a mighty fine day There's a toxic haze around my house A-my house, a-my house, a-my house A mighty fine way To mess up a mighty nice day My neighbor burns trash In a barrel out back I woke up this mornin' And the sky was blue A perfect day For a barbecue But by the time I got outside The air burned my nose And my eyes c'cause My neighbor burns trash -(Electric Guitar Solo)- A pack a matches And a pile a' leaves Three bags a-garbage And some gasoline Asked about her troubles And the world's to blame She'll burn anything That'll take to a flame She's a holy rollin' Pyromaniac Sets them fires Just to help her relax I'mm sitting' in my lawn chair Tryin' not to choke While I'm thinking' 'Bout the world Going up in smoke We'll all get to heaven one day[ I hope that Jesus Doesn't see it that way My neighbor burns trash In a barrel out back And on a mighty fine day There's a toxic haze Around my house A-my house, a-my house, a-my house A mighty fine way To mess up a mighty nice day My neighbor burns trash In a barrel out back My neighbor burns trash In a barrel out back Yeah, my neighbor burns trash In a barrel out back << -(Transcribed from CD 02March2023, caj)-
