Fire In The Dry Grass

There’s a fire in the dry grass
There’s a lie in a shot glass
There’s a smile choked by a vine
There’s a liar breakin' in line
Everybody said so long
Now everybody sleeps alone
And if you wonder where it’s gone:
Somebody threw a match
There’s a fire in the dry grass
There’s a fire in the dry grass
There’s a fire in the dry grass
There’s a snake in the dry grass
With an eye made of stained glass
Told a joke through an old mask
Blew up in smoke, never meant to last
Hey will you name mean a thing when it’s said and done?
Now everybody sleeps alone, all alone
All alone
There’s a fire in the dry grass
