The King Blues
Set The World On Fire
I wake up in the morning, take big pharma lozenges
Swallowing the juice of Israeli blood oranges
Then I sit down and read the newspaper
It tells me the enemy and lets me know the savior
This week's flavor, asylum seekers
As I lace up my blood-stained sneakers
I turn on the television, what have I got?
The war rages on and it's only 8 o'clock
Fire, fire, well I wanna set the world on fire
Fire, fire, yeah I wanna set the world on fire
Watch it all burn down
We can start again
Fire, fire, fire, fire!
They say it's just been invented
And it's now in shop, heaven sent it
And cures in always just one drop
So pay the doctor, to be the sniper
We want bigger tits, bigger, bigger, bigger, yeah!
This is how we use the greatest minds in science
Not a cure for cancer, but a profit for giants
They blind the clients with advertisements
If security heightens that ain't progress, it's violence
Fire, fire, well I wanna set the world on fire
Fire, fire, yeah I wanna set the world on fire
Watch it all burn down
We can start again
Fire, fire, fire, fire!
And if you notice my grotesque, protest music
The choice is yours, you can slate it or use it
Fight the power? man, we are the power!
Planting seeds in concrete streets and they flower
Politics and love ain't meant to be sinister
Primitive but I can't find anything simpler
I float around the perimeter
I only the follow to mob to lynch the prime minister
Fire, fire, well I wanna set the world on fire
Fire, fire, yeah I wanna set the world on fire
Watch it all burn down
We can start again
Fire, fire, fire, fire!
(watch it all burn down
We can start again)
Fire, fire, fire, fire!
Fire, fire, fire, fire!
