Bad Idea

[Verse 1]
So say, come and spark up the forest
Outlay the twilight, her glow
Make way for the dark to set us under
Our city by the ashes, overthrown

[Chorus]
Oh, it's a bad idea

[Verse 2]
Back then, it was only but a sentence
Shadow borne in the falling of an oak
How quick we falsified the promise
Take tomorrow out on loan

[Chorus]
Oh, it's a bad idea
Oh, it's a bad idea
Oh, it's a bad idea
And it's all catching up to us now

[Bridge]
But we hand you the matches
And we thumb-flick the light
And we gather up the kindling
For our first fire-fight

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Oh, poor California
Our Lady of the Isles
As the leaves, they do catch firе
We watch on the roof as the flamеs
Lick higher

[Outro]
So, said, come and spark up the forest
