fuck the fire department - vincent e. l. lyrics

[intro]

this narrative takes place in an alternate universe. any resemblance to fire departments in your universe is purely coincidental. this disclaimer does not apply to other departments

(there’s a singer in there. come out with your hands over your head, or we will huff, and puff, and burn your house to the ground!)

what, what, what, what

[verse 1]

what’s all this sh*t about the fire brigade?
they’re like the rest of us:
they do their job and try to get paid
these accusations are entirely fake
it’s best if we ignore them till they quietly fade

they’ve always had our best interests at heart
they save lives
that’s how it’s been since the start
they know what they’re doing, they’re consummate pros
but what’s that coming out of that hose?

it’s an outrage
yes i’m turning about*face
how strange is that when houses disappear without trace?
it outweighs and slays my doubt;
lays it out in front of me
and downplays my devout faith
how do they keep getting away with this?
i’ve put one hand up and made a fist
we’ve gotta break the tension
stop make*pretending
take revenge and rage against the engine

[chorus]

f*ck the fire department
dropping by unannounced just to fry your apartment
if they can’t find a fire they’re like “why don’t we start them?”
i’m tired of arson
f*ck the fire department

f*ck the fire department
dropping by unannounced just to fry your apartment
if they can’t find a fire they’re like “why don’t we start them?”
i’m tired of arson
f*ck the fire department

[verse 2]

i cry out in bargaining, eyes to the garden
begging release from the fire department
i might get a pardon if i do what they ask of me
act passively
and don’t do anything drastically
clap at their pageantry, bow and scr*pe
say it’s sour grapes from people out of shape
you’re here for our sake
and we’re grateful for all you do
you’re still gonna burn my house down, aren’t you?

i’m out of house, home, and every single possession
out of the frying pan and into depression
escaped physical aggression
into fiscal oppression
still don’t know what they meant by
“let this be a lesson!”

we’re living in an infernocracy
things are not how we
think they ought to be
it’s a mockery but i ain’t laughing
my world’s on fire and i’m dying gasping

[chorus]

f*ck the fire department
dropping by unannounced just to fry your apartment
if they can’t find a fire they’re like “why don’t we start them?”
i’m tired of arson
f*ck the fire department
f*ck the fire department
dropping by unannounced just to fry your apartment
if they can’t find a fire they’re like “why don’t we start them?”
i’m tired of arson
f*ck the fire department

[verse 3]

they were supposed to serve us
didn’t know their purpose
they had the power and they chose to hurt us
if you see a firefighter, don’t get nervous
that’ll only make it so much worse

it’s over
they’re on every block, knocking over oil drums
a few bad apples spoiled the bunch

i guess resistance is worthless
let ’em burn us
we’ll just stop, drop and roll
right into the furnace

[chorus]

f*ck the fire department
dropping by unannounced just to fry your apartment
if they can’t find a fire they’re like “why don’t we start them?”
i’m tired of arson
f*ck the fire department

f*ck the fire department
dropping by unannounced just to fry your apartment
if they can’t find a fire they’re like “why don’t we start them?”
i’m tired of arson
f*ck the fire department

[outro]

f*ck, f*ck, f*ck the fire department
f*ck, f*ck, f*ck the fire department
f*ck, f*ck, f*ck the fire department
f*ck, f*ck, f*ck the fire department

this is fine
