lyrics

There’s a dumpster fire on Douglas avenue
What can we do
When the ones who were supposed to put it out
Drove right past into the night
Missed the turn and didn’t look back
We’re stuck here now to put it out ourselves

These flames are visceral and
And they incinerate
And they’re incinerating, and they’re incinerating
This is the actual first time I’ve seen a dumpster fire
And it’s incinerating, and it’s incinerating
And I’m incinerated, and I’m incinerated
And I’m incinerated, and I’m incinerated

There's a bunch of fires
All around the world
The one in front of me
Is definitely not the worst it could be
But it's the worst for me
The help is getting overlooked
and flames are here just takin' off

These flames are visceral and
And they incinerate
And they’re incinerating, and they’re incinerating
This is the actual first time I’ve seen a dumpster fire
And it’s incinerating, and it’s incinerating
And I’m incinerated, and I’m incinerated
And I’m incinerated, and I’m incinerated
