This house is on fire |
|
Kick off your boots, come and sit a spell |
|
Listen to me worry, come and listen well |
|
All you better best come and lean in boys |
|
'Cause I don't dare to raise my voice |
|
I've been sitting here for the longest time |
|
Reading all the warning and the danger signs |
|
I don't have the gift of the prophecy |
|
Telling everybody how it's gonna be |
|
Soon come, soon come the day |
|
This tinderbox is gonna blow in your face |
|
I don't have the gift of the prophecy |
|
Telling everybody how it's gonna be |
|
You go passing wrong for right and right for wrong |
|
People only stand for that for just so long |
|
It's all gonna catch like a house on fire |
|
Spark an evil blaze and burn higher |
|
Well, I don't have the gift of the prophecy |
|
Telling everybody how it's gonna be |
|
You go passing wrong for right and right for wrong |
|
People only stand for that for just so long |
|
I don't have the gift of the prophecy |
|
Telling everybody how it's gonna be |
|
There's a wild fire catching in the whip of the wind |
|
That could start a conflagration |
|
Like there has never been |
|
This house is on fire |
