Have you ever heard 'bout the people who burned
Somehow immediately down with no reason at all
They didn't play with fire
They had no deathwish and it happened in a few minutes
It destroyed them completely
Just like Dr. Bentley
When they found him there was no smoke nor a spell
But the ceiling was burned
They found his right leg and the morning gown
It was still intact but the doctor had gone
What's this fire that burns the wires
Death by fire from the wires
There was nothing left
They found only ashes on the ground
No one could explain
No one would believe it
It's a phenomenon that's not often been seen
Like an inner heat burns the body complete
This is still a riddle that cuts us down to size
We are still quite helpless in our modern days
What's this fire that burns the wires
Death by fire from the wires
There was nothing left
They found only ashes on the ground
No one could explain
No one would believe it
There was nothing left
They found only ashes on the ground
In this case it seems that our rules are not worth a dime
No way to run and hide
The flames come from inside
