Harper Roy Berliners Lyrics

Berliners Lyrics

I. Burn the World
  II. Change It
 III. The Last Laugh
  IV. My Home Is
on the Water
   V. Live in Peace
  VI. Walkabout
 VII. Desert
Island
VIII. Burn the World (reprise)
Billy's on the street
Grabbing
easy meat
With furious claims
Somebody's killed
Anger's
spilled
Vengeance's flames
Robert's on the beat
Looking nice and
neat
For a one-sided fight
In his uniform
Looking to perform
With a
flashing blue light
He doesn't care
Anything's fair
'Cos he's always
right
As the flames of night
Burn equal right
In the
wind
Whispering
Why don't you
Burn the world
Sharon's in a
state
Coming home late
She's got no escape
From Billy's brute
force
To intercourse
In a frenzy of rape
Both defiled
By the
crowded wild
As the time bomb of hate
Modernises demise
As Robert
dies
In the same hail of lise
His masters devise
And pretend
suprise
As fiery cries
Begin to rise
Whispering
Why don't
you
Burn the world
Change it
Rearrange it
Derange it
In the name
of burning spirit
The passanger on the planet
The guinea pig chasing
sunset
To the last laugh he'll ever get
Hahahahahahaha
O no I don't
believe it
The passanger guiding sunset
To the kill
To the
kill
Fossilise it (my home)
To a standstill
Home is on the
water
The rainbow warrior runs
Against the fashion
passion(s)
Philosophies of guns
Where issues are invited
To front up
savage fun
By the ignorant and spineless
Out of touch with
'everyone'
Home
I wish I had an acre
Instead of just a
slot
Somewhere that I could take her
Where the world could mean a
lot
Instead of being cyphers
In a brave new council block
With endless
empty neighbours
And an ever bolted lock
Home
And soon I'll be taking
my leave
Forever
Is it better to laugh than to grieve
When it doesn't
matter
Whether I am evermore
Or whether I am
Anymore?
Home
Gonna
paint my room like a desert island
With yellow sand and blue lagoon
Invite
you all to come and live there
One afternoon
It'll be when no-one's
looking
More likely that not
We'll close the door and turn the sky
up
Find a good spot
Air fire water earth you were paradise
I'm sorry
about me
I was under the impression
That you were free and easy
Gonna
paint my room like a desert island
With clear skies and rising
swell
Leave the creeps on the jaded horizon
In Wall Streets of Hell
I
must say goodbye to the blindfold
And pursue the ideal
The planet
becoming the hostess
Instead of the meal
Air fire water earth you were
paradise
I'm sorry about me
I was under the impression
That you were
free and easy
To plunder
Rubbish on the air
Everywhere
Blood
pressure drives
Forests fall
At the beck and call
Of the cat with nine
lives
The stratosphere
Can disappear
And have no effect
On the red
of mars
Or the nearest stars
Or anything else
Except
The poems in
the wind
Whispering
Why burn the world?
