I'll Buy You A Bird

Taken from "Bee Thousand (Directors Cut)" 1994

"I heard you what the problem is
I didn't hear you both
You're coming through
Like weird electric jive
Bumming your role
I'm playing your role
Will you love me come Saturday
Yeah I know it's too hard to plan it
And will the attachment stay attached
Until destroyed by a match
Watch it burn a light in the night
Watch it burn a light in the night
Fire cleanses a soul
Fire cleanses a spirit
But I don't wanna hear it
Through a box with wires
I wanna taste it with my own two eyes
Burn baby burn
Burn baby burn baby burn baby burn"

Very Beatles sounding psychedelic acoustic number from Class era Bob and Guided By Voices. Many parts of this song metamorphoses into other songs through Bobs career. Burn Baby Burn, Now whats that from?
