I'm not there
I'm not there
I'm not there
I'm not there

The obituary read
"Killed by an overdose of press"
Not that the mother in law could care less
"Got what they deserved" is what they said she said

I'm glad I'm out of it and far away
I never did regret leaving
If you catch me sleeping in the shade of the day
Can you check if I'm still breathing?

But let the world burn, what do I care?
I'm in another place, I'm not there
Let the world burn, what do I care?
I'm in another place, I'm not there
I'm not, I'm not there

Your complimentary words
Ring like Big Ben inside my brain
And although sometimes the truth is preferred
You can tell me one or two white lies again

I know I can do what I've done before
Everyone says I can't come back
And although I still don't have respect for the law
We were friends one time down the track

But let the world burn, what do I care?
I'm in another place, I'm not there
Let the world burn, what do I care?
I'm in another place, I'm not there
I'm not, I'm not there

You can see by the lines that cross my face
Time has taken its toil
But I sure ain't ready for the hole, or the fire
I still got passion, I still got desire
And though I might be far away
I'm still competing in the human race

The visionaries gone blind
There's no-one to show you the way
They'll help you believe in it if you pay
Clowns are in re-hab re-programming their minds

I guess there's a price to pay to be free
This rolling stone's gathered some moss
I'm just a shadow of the man I used to be
Don't ask me why it's just because

But let the world burn, what do I care?
I'm in another place, I'm not there
Let the world burn, what do I care?
I'm in another place, I'm not there
I said let the world burn, what do I care?
I'm in another place, I'm not there
Let the world burn, what do I care?
I'm in another place, I'm not there
I'm not there, I'm not there
I'm not, I'm not there
