Fire in the Street

Fire, fire, fire in street now
People on their feet
Riots in the street

Burning up the future for their gold
Burning up the future for their gold

Proxy wars, and old world scores
Profit and power while the ice cap thaws
Ain't give a shit about our planet
only want to say that they ran it
All ism and schism, and nationalism
A closed world prison, for the same rich risen
Making bombs and selling their people
Never wonder why were so unequal...
Ain't time to wish away the sadness and the sorrow
We're always fighting for today and not tomorrow, so it seems

See the righteous rage of the new age
Sing the righteous songs of a new page
Gotta End SARS shooting
Corporate looting
Right coup booting
An in Santiago the ticket embargo
Churches burning, at the cost of learning
Marching on, like Grandma Wong
Still singing that Hong Kong Song...
Get up, Stand up for the world in which your living
Get Up, Stand up for the world in which is given to you
True powers in the many not the few...

Fire, fire, fire in street now
People on their feet
Riots in the street

See the righteous rage of a new age
Sing the righteous songs of a new page
Gotta END bad leaders
Hateful feeders
Future stealers
Wild fires they can't suppress
Mass movements to protest
Too many to arrest
The tide towards progress
In London, Rio, Seoul
Tehran and Tokyo
Paris, Manila, Minsk
Lagos and Port-au-Prince
Get up, Stand up
Get Up, Stand up

Fire, fire, fire in street now
People on their feet
Riots in the street
