There’s a fire in the barn
And it’s not a false alarm
A dog was chasing its tail
And it knocked a candle on top of a gas can
That I was holding in my hand
And the flames began to dance
That’s how it all began.
Well, he comes in the room
And he says he’s gonna save
There’s a look in his eyes
He’s a ticket to my grave
The things that I have done
Things that I have yet to do
This is news to me
Is this news to you?
The devil’s grinning
My soul’s spinning
In your washing machine
I wash my face
I wash my hands
But I can’t get myself clean.
So I run in the woods
But he is chasing me right behind
With my dog in his arms
And poison on his mind
I ask to make a trade
You give me back my dog
And you can take my soul
And that’s how I paid my toll.
The devil’s grinning
My soul’s spinning
In your washing machine
I wash my face
I wash my hands
But I can’t get myself clean.
There’s a fire in the barn
And it’s not a false alarm
The devil’s grinning
My soul’s spinning
In your washing machine.
