Contract Made of Fire lyrics

[Verse 1]
Love is a gloomy thing
But it makes the wallet sing
Well the files, they were climbing higher
I should have thought before helping crooked liars

[Chorus]
I fell into a contract made of fire
I went down, down, down
And the ink flowed higher
And it burns, burns, burns
Their wallet's dyer
I might retire

[Interlude]
Let me ask you an honest man's question
You ever try to raise a family?
You know how much that costs?
Years and years of tax goes into it
And your back cricks like hell on earth
Well, try crеating one, standards and practices, doc*mentеd invoices, moral ethics, it's all over the place
And it makes me sick, just as sick as singing more of these verses

[Chorus]
I fell into a clause when I got hired
I would drown, drown, drown
As the slugs reaped buyers
And it burns, burns, burns
I'm heckin' tired
Still think I might retire
[Verse 2]
All it took was a gambling leap
That said, it ain't gonna be cheap
Dividends was their desire
My job sucks, that's it, I'm packing in
I'm tired, that's it
Oh wait, more verses

[Chorus]
I fell into a contract made of fire
I went down, down, down
And the ink flowed higher
And it burns, burns, burns
I made up my mind, that's pretty much it, but-
I fell into a clause when I got hired
I would drown, drown, drown
As the slugs reaped buyers
And it burns, burns, burns
I am exhausted

[Outro]
It's not cheap, it's du-
I'm not singing anymore, it burns, burns, burns
The files, they're just getting higher
It's like a ring of fire, you know
Oh, I see what I did there
Yeah, I'm done, I'm retiring
That's it, that's it, nope, that's it, see you later
I'm outta here!
