Head Is A Flame (Cool With It) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I was born without a name, a soldier for
The streets, they say, "This kid's on a mission
Runnin' high on fame of the guillotine
No roots to find, and no one to miss him"

[Pre-Chorus]
My head is like a flame

[Chorus]
Well, we all get strange and we know it
But we're cool with it
And we all get a little bit older in this day and age
But we deal with it

[Verse 2]
My heart's shaking with a fire burning deep inside
Still, the politicians, they never listen
But money was a sound I didn't care to hear
Of which the politicians, they only listen

[Pre-Chorus]
My head was like a flame
And my eyes were red

[Chorus]
Well, we all get strange and we know it
But we're cool with it
And we all get a little bit older in this day and age
But we deal with it
[Post-Chorus]
My head was like a flame, it was burnin' up
Burnin' up, it was burnin' up
My head was like a flame, it was burnin' up
Burnin' up, it was burnin' up

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
I became a child of the universe
Reborn into this galactic prism

[Pre-Chorus]
My head was like a flame
And my eyes, my eyes were red

[Chorus]
Well, we all get strange and we know it
But we're cool with it
And we all get a little bit older in this day and age
But we deal with it

[Post-Chorus]
My head was like a flame, it was burnin' up
Burnin' up, it was burnin' up
My head was like a flame, it was burnin' up
Burnin' up, it was burnin' up
[Outro]
My head was like a flame
My head was like a flame
My head was like a flame
Head was like a flame

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
