BugfishSoup - Our Son Lyrics

Sometimes in the summer the heat can get to be too much to bear
There's a young man in this town and he's being going around
And he's been burning buildings to the ground
And when you go to his folks they think its some kind of joke
They turn their backs on you and while they frown
They'll say
It isn't our son committing arson
He's such a good boy
We know we taught him well
It isn't our son committing arson
He's well adjusted
He couldn't do now harm
But they're wrong
Cause I personally saw him with a gasoline can a bottle and some old rags
Now I don't think that he was going top drink it
And then use the rags to wipe his mouth when he was done
And that very night there were several fires in town
And you still tell me that that wasn't your son
You say
It isn't our son committing arson
He's such a good boy
We know we taught him well
It isn't our son committing arson
He's well adjusted
He couldn't do now harm
He couldn't do now harm
Last night you went down in the basement and found him with a can and a map
He had gas in the can and a lighter in hand
And he looked like he wanted to have fun
And that very night there were several fires in town
Now come on tell me that that wasn't your son
Come on say
It isn't our son committing arson
He's such a good boy
We know we taught him well
It isn't our son committing arson
He's well adjusted
He couldn't do now harm
He couldn't do now harm
But you're wrong
