Incubus - Pardon Me LYRICS

Pardon Me While I burst
Pardon Me While I burst (INTRO)

A decade ago, I never thought I would be,
At twnety-three, on the verge of spontaneous combustion.
Wow-is-me.
But I guess that it comes with a the territory,
An omnious landscape of never-ending calamity.
I need you to hear, I need you to see
That I have had all I can take and
Exploding seems like a definate possibility to me.


So pardon me while I burst into flames.
I've had enough of the world that is people's mindless games.
So pardon me while I burn and rise above the flame.
Pardon me, pardon me... No never be the same. (CHORUS)

Not two days ago, I was having a look in a book
And I saw a picture of a guy fried up above his knees.
I said, "I can relate,"
cause lately I've been thinking of combustion action.
As a welcomed vacation from the burdens of the planet Earth.
Like gravity, hypocrisy, and the perils of being in 3-D...
But thinking so much differently.

Pardon me while I burst into flames.
I've had enough of the world that is people's mindless games.
So pardon me while I burn and rise above the flame.
Pardon me, pardon me... I'll never be the same.

Never be the same… yeah

Pardon me while I burst into flames
Pardon me… Pardon me … Pardon me

So Pardon me while I burst into flames.
I've had enough of the world that is people's mindless games.
So pardon me while I burn and rise above the flame.
Pardon me, pardon me... I'll never be the same.

Pardon me…
Never be the same… yeah
