Jam - Funeral Pyre Lyrics
Down in amongst the streets tonightBooks will burn, people laugh and cry in their turmoil(turmoil turns rejoiceful)Shed your fears and lose your guiltTonight we burn responsibility in the fireWell watch the flames grow higher!But if you get too burnt, you cant come back homeAnd as I was standing by the edgeI could see the faces of those led pissing theirselves laughing(and the flames grew)Their mad eyes buldged their flushed faces saidThe weak get crushed as the strong grow strongerWe feast on flesh and drink on bloodLive by fear and dispise love in a crises(what with todays high prices)Bring some paper and bring some woodBring whats left of all your love for the fireWell watch the flames grow higher!But if you get too burnt - you cant come back homeAnd as I was standing by the edgeI could see the faces of those led pissing theirselves laughing(and the flames grew)Their mad eyes buldged their flushed faces saidThe weak get crushed as the strong grow strongerIn the funeral pyreWell watch the flames grow higherBut if you get too burnt - you cant come back home(well I feel so old, when I feel so youngWell I just cant grow up to meet the demands)
