[Verse] Match in my pocket, bat slung on my back (ha-HA!) Give me one match and watch me light the whole block black Sanity's boring, so I set it on fire Welcome to the show, kid — I AM the choir I LOVE the way it crackles, LOVE the way it climbs Every building's a canvas and the fire's my design Some men just want to watch it burn Well congratulations — YOU FOUND HIM, take your turn [Pre-Chorus] Can you smell it? Can you feel it comin'? Strike the match, boy — start it running I'm not broken, don't call it dark I'm just LAUGHING AT EVERY SPARK [Chorus] CHAOS BOB! Bat in hand and grinning wide! CHAOS BOB! Certified out of my mind! Light it up, watch it blaze, Ain't nobody sane in the chaos age! CHAOS BOB! Cackling on scorched ground! CHAOS BOB! Singing with the siren sound! You can run, you can hide, you can pray — I'M HAVING FUN — I'M HERE TO STAY! [Verse 2] Every swing I take, another world lights bright (hee-hee-HA!) Call it a hobby, call it my delight I didn't fall into this life by chance I chose the fire, I chose to dance They call it madness — well, guilty as charged I'm the punchline and I'm the punch, and the joke's at large I am the reason your plans go up in smoke And honestly? BEST. JOKE. I. EVER. TOLD. [Pre-Chorus] Can you smell it? Can you feel it comin'? Strike the match, boy — start it running I'm not broken, don't call it dark I'm just LAUGHING AT EVERY SPARK [Chorus] CHAOS BOB! Bat in hand and grinning wide! CHAOS BOB! Certified out of my mind!

[Bridge] Maybe I'm the villain in your story That's fine by me, I'll take the crown Somebody's gotta light the matches So watch me burn this whole town down— [unhinged laugh, tempo returns, building to solo] LIGHT IT UP! [Guitar solo] [Chorus — key change up] CHAOS BOB! Bat in hand and grinning wide! CHAOS BOB! Certified out of my mind! Light it up, watch it blaze, Ain't nobody sane in the chaos age! CHAOS BOB!
