(and) it's gonna get burned
   (Baillie/Crocker)
         

   
      Verse
   
   You see it all started way back when,
When I was a worryin' kind of guy,
Understand the lion, he can never live with,
Any intrusion upon his pride,
And sometimes you get caught stealin' from your brother,
And you're out there alone,with no place to hide,
The good stuff given you gets cut off,
And you can't be blamed if you lose your mind,
   
   
   Chorus
   
   I ain't tryin' to give you no guilt trip, girl,
I'm tellin' it as I've learned,
Everything is bound to what is meant to be,
...and it's gonna get burned,
  
 
   Verse Tag
   
   Close your eyes, and look around,
Deep inside your mind you'll find a soul unbound,
   
   
   Chorus
   
   I ain't gonna take no mo' that guilt shit ma'am,
I'm telling it as I've learned,
Everything is bound to what is meant to be,
...and it's gonna get burned,
   
   
   Solo
   
   
   Verse
   
   Anything could have been possible,
Would that we had tried saving it,
Perhaps some advice, would have been advisable,
You're so proud and strong and right,
Right, well, I can see that you don't care to understand,
If my baby cries at night, I can't be there to offer my hand,
   
   
   Chorus
   
   I ain't sailin' that guilt ship no more,
The milk in your cup of tea done turned,
Everything is bound to what is meant to be,
...and it's gonna get burned,
   
   
   Solo
   
   
                 End
