There's thirty seconds left, what's gonna happen next
You'd better watch your step, the wicked they don't ever rest
Yeah, they don't ever rest
Ain't nothin' cut and dry, no retro overdrive
I bet the fuse, is live, I'll feel it when the doves cry
Yeah, when the doves cry
What can you do?
Where can you go?
When your momma is a burnout
And your daddy is a pyro
'Cause they just want to light it on fire
And they just want to let it all burn
And they just want to light it on fire
And they just want to let it all burn
Set fire to the family tree
And set fire to the family tree
It's never one and done, it's only just begun
And now the inmates are runnin' the asylum
Runnin' the asylum
Am I a head case? Did I inherit this?
Am I a hypocrite to say that I ain't feelin' this (No, no, no, no, no!)
'Cause I ain't feelin' this (No, no, no, no, no, no, no!)
What can you do?

I’m pretty sure it’s about growing up in a bad house hold.
“What can you do? Where can you go? When your momma is a burnout And your daddy is a pyro”
A pyro is someone who likes to start or play with fire.
Dad causes problems, mom’s a burnout. I think of a burnout mom as wrestles, busy, sick of dealing with the kids, no longer loving her husband, the “pyro” dad.
“'Cause they just want to light it on fire And they just want to let it all burn”
^^^pretty self explanatory
“Set fire to the family tree”, I think that’s still talking about growing up in a bad household
I posted a comment a while ago thinking it was about a disfunctional family. But now I’m starting to think it’s more about being born into a cruel unforgiving world as each generation after the other gets worse. And this is happening strongly due to the people we grow up with.
