Broadripple is Burning! - Margot And The Nuclear So And So's

Children, Broadripple is burning

And the girls are getting sick

Off huffing glue in the bathroom

While your boyfriends pick up chicks

And darling, I’m lost

I heard you whispering that night in Fountain Square

Trash-filled streets made you wish you were headed home

There was love inside the basement

Where that woman used to lie

In a sleeping bag we shared

Upon the floor almost every night

And darling I’m drunk

And everything that I have loved has turned to stone

So pack your bags and come back home

And I’m wasted, you can taste it

Don’t look at me that way

Cause I’ll be hanging from a rope

I will haunt you like a ghost

If my woman was a fire

She’d burn out before I wake

And be replaced by pints of whiskey

Cigarettes and outer space

Then somebody moves

And everything you thought you had has gone to shit

We got a lot, don’t ever forget that

And I wrote this on an airplane

Where the people looked like eggs

And when a woman that you love is gone

She was bombing East Japan

And don’t fucking move

Because everything you thought you had will go to shit

We got a lot, don’t you dare forget that

And I’m wasted, you can taste it

Don’t look at me that way

Cause I’ll be hanging from a rope

I will haunt you like a ghost

And I’m wasted, you can taste it

Don’t look at me that way

Cause I’ll be hanging from a rope

I will haunt you like a ghost
