Burning the Locals by Fur Trade Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's been nineteen years, six months, and two days
Since I realized I cynicize too many different ways
But c’mon man, c'mon man, c'mon
There’s a look on your face

[Chorus]
Ohh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
You're burning the locals

[Verse 2]
This guy's out cold, someone choked out his luck
To keep burning the locals from the back of his truck
For God's sakes man, be quiet, can't you
See I'm on the phone?

[Chorus]
Ohh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
You're burning the locals
Ohh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
You're burning... You’re burning the locals
Ah, ahh
(You’re burning the locals)

[Verse 3]
I hear the creeping of footsteps and the whispers of men
Amen, amen, amen (You're burning the locals)
The knives are on the stove and the wives are in bed
But they’re dead, they're dead, they're dead (You're burning the locals)
There’s a crack in the roof and a phone in my hand
You're dead, I'm dead, you're dead (You're burning the locals)
We all end up at the dead end in the end
She says, she says, she says (You're burning the locals)

[Chorus]
Ohh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
You're burning the locals
Ohh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
You're burning the locals
Ohh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
You're burning the locals
(You're burning the locals)
Ohh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
You're burning the locals
(You're burning the locals)

[Outro]
Ohh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
I'm in your town, so I can do anything
I'm in your town, so I can say anything
(Ohh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh)
I'm in your town, so I can do anything
(You're burning the locals)
I'm in your town, so I can say anything
(Ohh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh)
I'm in your town, so I can do anything
I'm in your town, so I can say anything
(Ohh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh)
I'm in your town, so I can do anything
I'm in your town, so I can say anything
