You tell me there's an angel in your tree | |
Did he say he'd come to call on me | |
For things are getting desperate in our home | |
Living in the parish of the restless folks I know | |
Everybody now bring your family down to the riverside | |
Look to the east to see where the fat stock hide | |
Behind four walls of stone the rich man sleeps | |
It's time we put the flame torch to their keep | |
Burn down the mission | |
If we're gonna stay alive | |
Watch the black smoke fly to heaven | |
See the red flame light the sky | |
Burn down the mission | |
Burn it down to stay alive | |
It's our only chance of living | |
Take all you need to live inside | |
Deep in the woods the squirrels are out today | |
My wife cried when they came to take me away | |
But what more could I do just to keep her warm | |
Than burn burn burn burn down the mission walls |
You tell me there' s an angel in your tree | |
Did he say he' d come to call on me | |
For things are getting desperate in our home | |
Living in the parish of the restless folks I know | |
Everybody now bring your family down to the riverside | |
Look to the east to see where the fat stock hide | |
Behind four walls of stone the rich man sleeps | |
It' s time we put the flame torch to their keep | |
Burn down the mission | |
If we' re gonna stay alive | |
Watch the black smoke fly to heaven | |
See the red flame light the sky | |
Burn down the mission | |
Burn it down to stay alive | |
It' s our only chance of living | |
Take all you need to live inside | |
Deep in the woods the squirrels are out today | |
My wife cried when they came to take me away | |
But what more could I do just to keep her warm | |
Than burn burn burn burn down the mission walls |
You tell me there' s an angel in your tree | |
Did he say he' d come to call on me | |
For things are getting desperate in our home | |
Living in the parish of the restless folks I know | |
Everybody now bring your family down to the riverside | |
Look to the east to see where the fat stock hide | |
Behind four walls of stone the rich man sleeps | |
It' s time we put the flame torch to their keep | |
Burn down the mission | |
If we' re gonna stay alive | |
Watch the black smoke fly to heaven | |
See the red flame light the sky | |
Burn down the mission | |
Burn it down to stay alive | |
It' s our only chance of living | |
Take all you need to live inside | |
Deep in the woods the squirrels are out today | |
My wife cried when they came to take me away | |
But what more could I do just to keep her warm | |
Than burn burn burn burn down the mission walls |
