Lyrics:

Down at the court house they're ringing the flag down

Long black line of cars snaking slow through town
Red sheets snapping on the line

With this ring will you be mine?
The fuse is burning
Shut out the lights

The fuse is burning
Come on, let me do you right
Trees on fire with the first fall's frost

Long black line in front of Holy Cross

Blood moon rising in a sky of black dust

Tell me baby, who do you trust?

The fuse is burning
Shut out the lights

The fuse is burning
Come on, let me do you right
Tires on the highway hissing, somethings come

You feel the wires in the treetop's humming
Devil's on the horizon line

Your kiss and I'm alive
Quiet afternoon in the empty house

On the edge of the bed you slip off your blouse

The room is burning with the noon sun

Your bittersweet taste on my tongue
The fuse is burning
Shut out the lights
The fuse is burning
Come on, let me do you right
The fuse in burning
Shut out the lights
The fuse is burning
Come on, let me do you right
The fuse is burning
The fuse is burning

The fuse is burning
The fuse is burning
The fuse is burning
The fuse is burning
The fuse is burning
