Smoke alarm went off on Tuesday night From my room, everyone heard it The source of fire: my desire To keep my dorm room candle burning I, I, I, I hoped I'd see your face Glowing in the icy cold glaze While smoke dissipates I thought we'd fuel a flame But it went away, it went away Bum ba dum Bum ba dum Bum bum ba dum Bum ba dum I found out everything you like Tattered books and cheap red wine Maybe if I know enough I can fool the guards that gate your heart off And I just wanna know you, I'd make the wildest excuse Until the smoke smell says it's no use Bum ba dum Bum ba dum Bum bum ba dum Bum ba dum
