[00:18.250] | There is fire on the mountain |
[00:22.500] | and nobody seems to be on the run. |
[00:26.740] | Oh there is fire on the mountain top and no one is a’ running. |
[00:35.109] | I wake up in the morning |
[00:39.769] | tell you what I see on my TV screen |
[00:44.249] | I see the blood of an innocent child and everybody's watching. |
[00:52.389] | Now' I'm looking out my window |
[00:57.229] | and what do I see? |
[01:02.089] | I see an army of a soldier man marching across the street' hey... |
[01:11.179] | Hey Mr. soldier man' tomorrow is the day you go to war |
[01:19.899] | Boy you are fighting for another man’s 'cause and you don’t even know him |
[01:29.889] | What did they say to make you so blind to your conscience and reason? |
[01:37.369] | Could it be love for your country or for the gun you use in killing? |
[01:45.079] | So there is fire on the mountain |
[01:51.219] | and nobody seems to be on the run |
[01:55.579] | Oh there is fire on the mountain top and no one is a’ running. |
[02:05.229] | Hey' Mister Lover-man can I get a chance to talk to you? |
[02:13.170] | 'cause you are fooling with a dead man's corpse and you don't know what you do. |
[02:22.330] | So you say you have a lover |
[02:26.840] | and you love her like no other |
[02:31.080] | So you buy her a diamond that someone has died on |
[02:36.150] | don’t you think there’s something wrong with this? |
[02:39.400] | Tell me' who’s responsible for what we teach our children? |
[02:45.300] | Is it the internet or the stars on television? |
[02:49.550] | Why oh why? Why oh' why oh? Oh! |
