Burning Down by R.E.M.
Lyrics & Translation
English
From the back of my neck, oh oh oh
Wired a glass jaw, oh oh
Plantation burning your boat is coming in
Strum your jew's harp, you're reeking gin
Running water on a sinking boat
Going under but they've got your goat
Burning down
My hands are tied my feet are bound
Burning down
Can't you see that my hands are bound
Johnny Mike is reading in the yard
His story's timely, oh oh oh
What river is it anyway, radio
Not in a boat, in your ear
Running water in a sinking boat
Going under but they've got your goat
Burning down
My hands are tied my feet are bound
Burning down
Can't you see that my hands are bound
You pick your island in the sun
Take your island off he's got a gun
Burning down
My hands are tied my feet are bound
Burning down
Can't you see that my hands are bound
He's cooking in the woods, a brush fire in your neck
Feeling mighty mighty, oh oh oh
You can pick your island in the sun
Take your island off he's got a gun
Running water in a sinking boat
Going under but they've got your goat
Burning down
My hands are tied my feet are bound
Burning down
Can't you see that my hands are bound

Burning Down* (original R.E.M.)
From the back of my neck, oh oh oh
Wired a glass jaw, oh oh
Plantation burning your boat is coming in
Strum your jew's harp, you're reeking gin
Running water on a sinking boat
Going under but they've got your goat
Burning down
My hands are tied my feet are bound
Burning down
Can't you see that my hands are bound
Johnny Mike is reading in the yard
His story's timely, oh oh oh
What river is it anyway, radio
Not in a boat, in your ear
Running water in a sinking boat
Going under but they've got your goat
Burning down
My hands are tied my feet are bound
Burning down
Can't you see that my hands are bound
You pick your island in the sun
Take your island off he's got a gun
Burning down
My hands are tied my feet are bound
Burning down
Can't you see that my hands are bound
He's cooking in the woods, a brush fire in your neck
Feeling mighty mighty, oh oh oh
You can pick your island in the sun
Take your island off he's got a gun
Running water in a sinking boat
Going under but they've got your goat
Burning down
My hands are tied my feet are bound
Burning down
Can't you see that my hands are bound
Burning Down (traducción LyricVerse Team)
Desde la nuca, oh oh oh
Cableó una mandíbula de cristal, oh oh
Plantación ardiendo tu barco está llegando
Toca tu arpa de boca, apestas a ginebra
Agua corriendo en un barco que se hunde
Hundiéndose pero te han atrapado
Ardiendo
Mis manos están atadas mis pies están sujetos
Ardiendo
¿No ves que mis manos están atadas?
Johnny Mike está leyendo en el patio
Su historia es oportuna, oh oh oh
¿Qué río es de todos modos, radio?
No en un barco, en tu oído
Agua corriendo en un barco que se hunde
Hundiéndose pero te han atrapado
Ardiendo
Mis manos están atadas mis pies están sujetos
Ardiendo
¿No ves que mis manos están atadas?
Eliges tu isla bajo el sol
Quita tu isla, él tiene un arma
Ardiendo
Mis manos están atadas mis pies están sujetos
Ardiendo
¿No ves que mis manos están atadas?
Está cocinando en el bosque, un incendio forestal en tu cuello
Sintiéndote muy muy, oh oh oh
Puedes elegir tu isla bajo el sol
Quita tu isla, él tiene un arma
Agua corriendo en un barco que se hunde
Hundiéndose pero te han atrapado
Ardiendo
Mis manos están atadas mis pies están sujetos
Ardiendo
¿No ves que mis manos están atadas?
