Mailbox Arson
[Pre-Chorus: George Pettit]
Your mail's not safe in this town
Your mail's not safe in this town
Your mail's not safe in this town
Your mail's not safe in this town
[Verse 1: George Pettit]
I strike a red bird on your face
I pour the kerosene in your mouth
I watch the match fall down your throat
[Verse 2: George Pettit]
I burn all your precious bowels
Watch the smoke fold for every crack
And breathe in your secret lives
All your bills pay your welfare checks
But I don't think I can stay for long
There's a lot more that's not yet ash
[Pre-Chorus: George Pettit]
Your mail's not safe in this town
Your mail's not safe in this town
Your mail's not safe in this town
Well I'm taking this town back
[Chorus: Dallas Green]
I watch the smoke start to rise
One hundred homes, one hundred fires
Everything you own now burns away
This town is no longer mine
It's fucked with me for the last time
How I wish that I could see your face
[Verse 4: George Pettit]
When the sky is streaked with plumes
Know that it's my signature
Upon this wretched fucking city
[Bridge: George Pettit & Dallas Green]
Mailbox arson, my sweet revenge
Mailbox arson, my sweet revenge
Strike a match and burn away every tie
That binds me to this place
Strike a match and burn away every tie
That binds me to this place
I will strike a match and burn away every tie
That binds me to this place
Strike a match and burn away every tie
That binds me to this place
When the smoke clears
You can consider us even
[Pre-Chorus: George Pettit]
Your mail's not safe in this town
Your mail's not safe in this town
Your mail's not safe in this town
I'm taking this town back
[Chorus: Dallas Green]
I watch the smoke start to rise
One hundred home, one hundred fires
Everything you own now burned away
This town is no longer mine
It's fucked with me for the last time
How I wish that I could see your face
