House burning down Lyrics

    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 wa 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 daddys 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 your brother's house down ?

    Hey ! Hey ! Hey ! Hey !

    Look out the sky turn a hell fire red Lord
    Somebody's house is burnin' down down, down down
    Look out 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
    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.

    Ooh, ooh, ooh
    Ooh, ooh, ooh
    Oh baby
