  < dog woke me up >

[font=Courier New]    
 but all i could think of    
 was the gasoline    
 and that picture    
   
 that kid    
   
 and the napalm    
   
 and i said i would    
 but first    
 my car needs gas    
 and i went out to the car    
 and got in    
 and started it    
 and drove to the gas station    
   
 and there they were    
 pouring it over her    
   
 and there i was    
   
 helping    
   
 i had the matches in my hand    
 and was reaching down  
   
 when the dog woke me up
