Name: Firefly
Duration: P00H04M04S
Description: The song is, in short, about how easy it is to get distracted from the important things in life. It is also about a woman who is aroused by arson and reads Edward Abbey. If there are any single ladies or gentlemen out there in our reading audience, I suggest you place those attributes in your "desired qualities" section of your interwebz dating profile and stick to it steadfastly.

lyrics

You're much more of a firefly than a fighter,' She said as she sidled up to me. She couldn't take her eyes off my lighter -- I couldn't take my eyes off her knee. We left to get acquainted better Beneath the constellations and the evergreens. She said, 'you're just in luck.' Pushed me in her pick-up truck. Now no amount of soap can make me clean. Burn, burn, burn, arson is the answer. Burn, burn, burn, fire is your friend. Burn, burn, burn, arson is the answer... Hey are those my pants your taking off? (Jumbo-jet whispers and thunder-lizard serenades And other things that chase away the blues. Like sitting on my couch watching 'Dog the Bounty Hunter' Just trying to get through yesterday without the pills and booze while remembering the second best revenge is living well... Just after torching his Escalade and telling him to burn in hell.) We'd just torched a Chili's outside of Mesa And a jagged piece of shrapnel ran her through. I lifted up her Nine Inch Nails tank top: She was bleeding from her monkey-wrench tattoo. She told me to take the truck and that she loved me. Then my firefly's glow, oh, it grew so low. She whispered, "Please find a way To make your habits pay." And with that my sweet siren let me go.
