House Burning Down

Hey
Hey
Hey
Hey

Look at the sky turn a hell fire red
Somebody's house is burnin'
Down down down down
Down down down

Well I asked my friend
Where is that black smoke comin' from?
He just coughed and changed the subject
And said oh well I think it might snow some
So I left him sippin' his tea
An' I jumped in my chariot
And rode off to see
Just why and who could it be this time

Sisters and brothers daddies mothers standin' 'round cryin'
When I reached the scene the flames were makin' a ghostly whine
So I stood on my horse's back
An' I screamed without a crack
I say oh baby why'd you burn this brother's house down?

Hey
Hey
Hey
Hey

Look at the sky turn a hell fire red Lord
Somebody's house is burnin'
Down down down down
Look at the sky turn a hell fire red Lord
Somebody's house is burnin'
Down down down down down

Well someone stepped from the crowd
He was nineteen miles high
He shouts retired and disgusted
So we paint red through the sky
I said the truth is straight ahead
So don't burn yourself instead
Try to learn instead of burn
Hear what I say
Yeah yeah

So I fin'ly rode away
But I'll never forget that day
'Cause when I reached the valley I looked way down cross the way
A giant boat from space landed with eerie grace
And came and taken all the dead away

Hey
Hey
Hey
Hey

What'd I say
Look at the sky turn a hell fire red Lord
Somebody's house is burning
Down down down down
(Still burning)
Look at the sky turn a hell fire red Lord
Somebody's house is burning
down down down down
Look at the sky
Look at the sky
Look at the sky
...

Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh

Oh baby
