He said, "I'm gonna buy this place and burn it down
"I'm gonna put it six feet underground"
He said, "I'm gonna buy this place and watch it fall
"Stand here beside me, baby, in the crumbling walls
"Oh, I'm gonna buy this place and start a fire
"Stand here until I fill all your heart's desires
"Because, I'm gonna buy this place and see it burn
"And do back the things it did to you in return"
Hoh-ooh, hoh-ooh
Hoh-ooh, hoh-ooh
He said, "I'm gonna buy a gun and start a war
"If you can tell me something worth fighting for
"Oh, 'and I'm gonna buy this place', is what I said
"Blame it upon a rush of blood to the head"
Honey, all the movements you've started to make
See me crumble and fall on my face
And I know the mistakes that I made
See it all disappear without trace
And they call as they beckon you on
They say start as you mean to go on
Start as you mean to go on
He said, "I'm gonna buy this place and see it go
"Stand here beside me, baby, watch the orange glow
"Some will laugh and some just sit and cry
"But you just sit down there and you wonder why
"So I'm gonna buy a gun and start a war
"If you can tell me something worth fighting for
"'And I'm gonna buy this place', is what I said
"Blame it upon a rush of blood to the head"
Oh, to the head, oh
Honey, all the movements you've started to make
See me crumble and fall on my face
And I know the mistakes that I made
See it all disappear without trace
And they call as they beckon you on
They say start as you mean to go on
As you mean to go on
As you mean to go on
So meet me by the bridge
Oh, meet me by the lane
When am I going to see that pretty face again?
Meet me on the road
Meet me where I said
Blame it all upon a rush of blood to the head
