Buy A Fire Extinguisher Before You Need A Fire Extinguisher
from Fenton by Hot Mulligan
lyrics
I'm setting off these fireworks outside your bedroom window - washed in sparks as fire's falling down into the snow.
Dogs are barking, noise complaints, but I don't want to go, no.
Step outside. I'll play these songs. Don't make me be alone.
Singing just to please someone is all I've ever known.
Sit for hours - no response. I guess I'll go back home.
I had a little money in my pocket; I spent it all on you.
Yes, I had a little money in my pocket. Well, I guess that's really all I had.
Snowballs cake your screen, and I hope your home because how embarrassing would it be if you're not home, and I'm just watching your window instead of knocking. Play guitar in your back yard, and sing and wait until your alarm goes off - and it goes off.
What will it take for me to see you when you're thinking I'm a human?
I'll wait until you're feeling..
Dogs are barking, noise complaints, but I don't want to go, no.
Step outside. I'll play these songs. Don't make me be alone.
Singing just to please someone is all I've ever known.
Sit for hours - no response. I guess I'll go back home.
I had a little money in my pocket; I spent it all on you.
Yes, I had a little money in my pocket. Well, I guess that's really all I had.
Snowballs cake your screen, and I hope your home because how embarrassing would it be if you're not home, and I'm just watching your window instead of knocking. Play guitar in your back yard, and sing and wait until your alarm goes off - and it goes off.
What will it take for me to see you when you're thinking I'm a human?
I'll wait until you're feeling..

Perfectly encapsulates the teenage experience. Finding this album while still young and in high school was the best decision I've made in quite awhile.

The verse "Can't even buy a coffee without exploiting someone" got me. It really hits hard. For the entire length of the album it felt like the end of the world. But to be perfectly honest, it's just how life is these days. And it's fucked up.
