lyrics

When I was just a lad, we had a dog named Rex. He was a good, good boy- favourite of the family pets. One day when mum was out, I thought of a little game. It was sad to see Rex go, but so much fun to watch the flames! They called the RSPCA. The next day, men in white coats took me away.

When I was in that place, I had a film that liked best. It was “Apocalypse Now”- I had it on VHS. I had a favourite part, it was the opening scene. And I re-wound it every time to see the napalm blow the trees. Its always smelled like victory. It sang to me; “we’ll be so limitless and free”.

Your dreams, lust and desire. His dreams, global empires. My dreams, only of fire.

They finally let me out. I went home to mum and dad. “Sorry for what I done, I know that I been bad”. When they were fast asleep (they didn’t know I’d stayed up late), I lit a match under their bed and fire led them to their fate. There were no bodies to cremate. They don’t appreciate the unique art that I create.
