The Lyrics

It's been a while, so this is my comeback. Now, I didn't really want to set the world on fire, but if you want someone to blame, blame Britt Nicole. JUST KIDDING! This song arose from this random and somewhat prideful thought that hit me: WHAT IF I WAS GOD?! Not that I actually want to be God or anything. Sorry if this offends you. It's a joke.
Darn! Jack Reacher ate my dog, Emmi Windes stuck in a bog
Britt Nicole's ridiculous. China's under block!
Jack Bauer in my house again! I just went to Winnipeg, North Koreans set us up, Russians just threw up!
Mr. Howard's going nuts, I just need some blood and guts
Sandy just got blown away, I threw Sam Coons in the fray
Harry's got a vaccine! Israel got a new king!
Marci killed me, someone help me! Sammy just went goodbye

I set the world on fire
Now the world is burning!
Because I'm returning!
I set the world on fire
Britt Nicole ignited
I was dumb to try it

Adolf Hitler, Makarov, Al-Bashir's in Volgogrod
Mr. Howard ate my fish, someone crushed my wish
Caleb Windes burned me, Peter Dean just hates me, Mr. Rotem's after me! Someone eat this croc!
Sucker, I'm no fool! I will make all of you drool!
Mr Howard, get a pan! Mr. Taylor's here again!
Let's bomb Budapest, Paris or just Bucharest.
Get Your Grace, Peyton's Waste! I will blow the Suez!

I set the world on fire
Britt Nicole ignited
I was dumb to try it
I set the world on fire!
Britt Nicole ignited
I was dumb to try it

Islam, burn! Allah, die! Mohammed just told a lie! Sputnik's going out! We will all burn Islam out!
Lebanon's under attack! Charles De Gaulle just beat a lap! California's under thrall! Starkweather's suicide! Kids all have thalidomide!
Holly Starr, amnesia! Ben Hoving's in mafia
Shoot him down! Alcatraz! New York is a no-go!
Havoc, Sigmund Free, Jack Bauer vs. Kennedy
Chubby Buttons on a roll! Muslims just killed Castro!

I set the world on fire!
Britt Nicole ignited
It was dumb to try it
I set the world on fire!
Britt Nicole ignited
It was dumb to try it

Hemingway hit me again
Carpenter is chasing Bane
Andrew ate me, I'll just resurrect thee!
Lawrence bombed Arabia, I killed Beatlemania
Miss B. hates me, I just zapped James Patterson
Britt Nicole, you're so next, I will not have time to text, Mr. Howard blown away! What else will I have to say?

I set the World on Fire
Britt Nicole ignited
It was dumb to try it
I set the world on Fire
Britt Nicole Ignited
It was dumb to try it

Birth control, epic fail, Olivia Coons is out on bail, watching me with binocs, wavy her thick wavy locks!
Reagan's now in Palestine, havoc on an airline, Al-Washir is back again, Russians just nuked poor Iran.
Wheel of Fortune host just cried, Hannah Blackmur, suicide, foreign debt, praying bet, AIDs, marijuana, tex!
Orthopedics on the crawl, US under martial law
Russia hit, Cola split, I'll take craziness no more!

I set the world on fire
Britt Nicole ignited
It was dumb to try it.
I set the world on fire
Britt Nicole ignited!
It was dumb to try it...
(repeat until bored)
These events are NOT real, mind you I just thought 'em up as I imagined the future...if I were God (a dream that will never come true because I can never replace God and I never plan to anyway).
