Something's Burning
While invisible hands hold down whole towns
The little folks bleat out a whimpering sound
Like a sliced-up skinned-off cattle hide
Carved apart by the butcher's knife
Do you smell something burning
Do you smell something burning now
Do you now
Sense the accelerant, shelter your daughters
Prudently stockpile your food and your water
Just stay indoors and fear thy neighbor
Waiting on your holy savior
Do you smell something burning
Do you smell something burning down
Do you now
Ashes to ash
Fire and flame
Ashes to ash, baby
It's back again
Everyone's screaming out, "run for your lives"
You gotta take a chance if you wanna survive
Trade favors, ignore what you've heard
And make haste for the edge of the known world
Do you smell something burning
Do you smell something burning down
Do you now
Ashes to ash
Fire and flame
Ashes to ash, baby
It's back again
Ashes to ash, yeah
Fire and flame
Ashes to ash, yeah
It's happenin' again
Everyone's screaming out, "run for your lives"
You gotta take a chance if you wanna survive
Everyone's screaming out, "run for your lives"
You gotta take a chance if you wanna survive, c'mon
Do you feel the tide turning
Do you feel the tide turning now
Do you now
Ashes to ash
Fire and flame
Ashes to ash, baby
It's back again
Ashes to ash
Fire and flame
Ashes to ash
Watch it happenin' again
The little folks bleat out a whimpering sound
Like a sliced-up skinned-off cattle hide
Carved apart by the butcher's knife
Do you smell something burning
Do you smell something burning now
Do you now
Sense the accelerant, shelter your daughters
Prudently stockpile your food and your water
Just stay indoors and fear thy neighbor
Waiting on your holy savior
Do you smell something burning
Do you smell something burning down
Do you now
Ashes to ash
Fire and flame
Ashes to ash, baby
It's back again
Everyone's screaming out, "run for your lives"
You gotta take a chance if you wanna survive
Trade favors, ignore what you've heard
And make haste for the edge of the known world
Do you smell something burning
Do you smell something burning down
Do you now
Ashes to ash
Fire and flame
Ashes to ash, baby
It's back again
Ashes to ash, yeah
Fire and flame
Ashes to ash, yeah
It's happenin' again
Everyone's screaming out, "run for your lives"
You gotta take a chance if you wanna survive
Everyone's screaming out, "run for your lives"
You gotta take a chance if you wanna survive, c'mon
Do you feel the tide turning
Do you feel the tide turning now
Do you now
Ashes to ash
Fire and flame
Ashes to ash, baby
It's back again
Ashes to ash
Fire and flame
Ashes to ash
Watch it happenin' again
