SOMEONE SAID THEY SAW YOU

Someone said they saw you
Carrying a flame
Someone said that you
Were the one to blame
You always had a thing for fire
The last man that anyone
Would ever hire
Someone said they saw you
Carrying a flame

Someone said that you
Had an axe to grind
When you lost your job
You also lost your mind
Now you’re going to make the county pay
You’re going to start right here
With the Burns boys’ hay
Someone said they saw you
Carrying a flame

I heard you set off the siren
You were the first one there
I heard you smelled a lot
Like kerosene
You had a singed spot in your hair
You had a singed spot in your hair

Someone said they saw you
Climbing Conklin’s road
Late at night
With no place good to go
You sent Howard’s barn to the sky
And you made all his Holsteins fry
Someone said they saw you
Carrying a flame
