Burn Me Up — Oingo Boingo

Verse 1

I would like to be a martyr over time it's getting harder who do I have to go and kill to get my face on a dollar bill.

Chorus 1

Every single time I look someone else has beat me to it some poor bastard bites the dust I really don't know who to trust. But there's one thing I can't deny I'd rather it was me they fried have a drink from an empty cup light a match and burn me up.

Verse 2

I'm exhausted, I'm committed, i'm outsmarted, i'm out witted. my head's filled with dynamite it's coming out of my ears at night.

Chorus 2

I think I am being watched Electric eyes that never turn off. Radar beams insinuating evil thoughts while i'm masturbating. And even my old trinitron, it's comin through when nothing's on. Have a drink from an empty cup, light a match and burn me up.
