Smile and watch her scream
You could be a thousand places
Safe inside a dream
You can wear a thousand faces
Light the fuse and run
Broken bodies in your sleep that
Vanish in the sun
Still the flame you bury deep is
        Burning like a star
        Burning like a star
        Burning like a star
        And someone said they saw a car on fire

Are you just like me
Do you hide the fire inside you
When you turn the key
Do your engines override you
Never take the blame
Living life so far above but
When you see the flame
Can you tell me that it's love that
        Makes you stop and stare
        Makes you stop and stare
        Makes you stop and stare
        So surprised to see me there on fire

Singing
(We don't care) Cause life's a bore
(We don't care) If you get yours
(We don't care) Much who you are
(We just wanna watch your car on fire)

(solo)

Do you still deny
Nothing drives you like disaster
When you close your eyes
Hear your heart, it's pumping faster
Standing in the crowd
You'll be on TV tomorrow
Genie in a cloud
Do you wish to stop the sorrow

        Don't you wish you knew
        Don't you wish you knew
        Don't you wish you knew
        Feel the answer burning through like fire

Singing
(We don't care) Cause life's a bore
(We don't care) If you get yours
(We don't care) Much who you are
(We just wanna watch your car)
                          Singing
(We don't care) Cause life's a bore
(We don't care) If you get yours
(We don't care) Much who you are
(We just wanna watch your car on fire)
