Three Foot Blasts of Fire Lyrics

Well it's five-oh-five
And baby I’m just alive
Because the way they drive
It's terrifying

Mama hurts my head
Wishes I was dead
Lying in her bed
Cursing and crying

Oh the gasoline
It's a painful thing
’Cause every drop I drink
Cuts me to the bone and muscle

But the show goes on
For all the cars and horns
And I hear them call

"We love it, we love it, we love-love-love it"

For the money
Blowing and blowing
Three foot blasts of fire
Desperation
Means that I'm blowing
Three foot blasts of fire
Three foot blasts of fire
I'm a blowing, I'm a blowing, I'm a blowing
I'm a blowing, I'm a blowing my time

Well it's five-oh-five
And baby I’m just alive
Because the way they drive
It’s terrifying

Mama hurts my head
Wishes I was dead
Lying in her bed
Cursing and crying

Oh the gasoline
For all the cars and horns
And I hear them call

"We love it, we love it, we love-love-love it"

For the money
Blowing and blowing
Three foot blasts of fire
Desperation
Means that I'm blowing
Three foot blasts of fire
Three foot blasts of fire

(For the money baby)
(Desperation)
(Blowing, blowing, blowing)

I’m blowing my life, blowing my life away
Three foot blasts of fire
I'm a blowing, I'm a blowing, I'm a blowing
I’m a blowing, I'm a blowing my time
Upon my three foot blasts of fire

I'm blowing my life away
I'm blowing my life away
I'm blowing my life away

I'm blowing my life away
I'm blowing my life away
I'm blowing my life away
