[Verse 1]

(when playing the power chords (G5, E5, etc.) palm mute)

G                              Em
Hello my name is Jimmy Pop and I'm a dumb white guy
        G                                  Em
I'm not old or new but middle school fifth grade like junior high
         G                                          Em
I don't know mofo if y'all peeps be bugging givin' props to my ho cause she fly
           D                                                C
But I can take the heat cause I'm the other white meat know as kid funky fry
    G5                              E5
I'm hung like planet Pluto, hard to see with the naked eye
         G5                          E5
But if I crashed into Uranus I would stick it where the sun don't shine
          G5                             E5
Cause I'm kind of like Han Solo, always strokin' my own wookie
         A5                              C5                      A|-3-0-2-0-|
I'm the root of all that's evil yeah but you can call me cookie


[Chorus] 

(play palm muted)

G5                   E5
The roof, the roof, the roof is on fire
G5                   E5
The roof, the roof, the roof is on fire
G5                   E5
The roof, the roof, the roof is on fire
D5                              C5              (stop)
We don't need no water let the motherfucker burn
                        (play the riff)
Burn motherfucker, burn


[Verse 2]

(play palm muted)

             G5                              E5
Yo, yo, this hardcore ghetto gangster image takes a lot of practice
         G5                              E5
I'm not black like Barry White, no I am white like Frank Black is
      G5                                     E5                     F#5
So if man is five and the devil is six then that must make me seven
G5             E5
This honkey's gone to heaven
     G5                          E5
But if I go to hell, well then I hope I burn well
              G5                                  E5
I'll spend my days with JFK, Marvin Gaye, Martha Raye and Lawrence Welk
           G5                                E5
And Kurt Cobain, Kojak, Mark Twain and Jimi Hendrix's poltergeist
    A5                                C5                    A|-3-0-2-0-|
And Webster yeah Emmanuel Lewis cause he's the Anti-Christ


[Chorus]

(play like before)

The roof, the roof, the roof is on fire
The roof, the roof, the roof is on fire
The roof, the roof, the roof is on fire
We don't need not water let the motherfucker burn
Burn motherfucker, burn
