Lyrics
This guitar made sense of me
But made a fool of you
Turn away there's nothing to see
She screams to get what she needs
She's screaming to get what she needs
She's a paper lantern
She could go up any time, any time
She's a sulphur matchtip
Witha volatile mind
She's a teenage girl with a torch in her hand
She's gonna burn you down to the ground
She will place herself in the firing line
She's gonna burn this town down
(she's gonna burn this town to the ground)
Turn the heat down I like it cold
The heat makes my tears flow
Maybe I'm the touchpaper
The spark the flint or the glow
The flame, the sticks or the coal
She's a paper lantern...... etc
