House Burning Down Lyrics

YEAH

 SAID HEY 

 HEY SAID THAT

 HEY 

 LOOK AT THE SKY RUNT A HELL-FIR RED

 SOMEBODY'S HOUSE IS BURNIN'

 DOWN DOWN DOWN DOWN

 DOWN DOWN YEAH

 

 WELL I ASKED MY FRIEND

 WHERE IS THAT BLACK SMOKE COMIN' FROM?

 HE JUST COUGHED AND CHANGED THE SUBJECT

 AND SAID UH, WELL I THINK IT MIGHT SNOW SOME

 SO I LEFT HIM SIPPIN' HIS TEA

 AND I JUMPeD I MY CHARIOT AND RODE OFF TO SEE

 JUST WHY AND WHO COULD IT BE THIS TIME

 YEAH YEA YEAH YEAH

 SISTERS AND BROHERS DADDIES MOTHERS STANDIN' AROUND CRYIN'

 WHeN I REACHED THE SCENE THE FLAMES WERE MAKING A GHOSTLY WHINE

 SO I STOOD ON MY HORSE'S BACK AND I SCREAMED WITHOUT A WHACK

 I SAY OH BABY WHY DID YOU BURN YOU BROTHER'S HOUSE DOWN?

 

 HEY

 HEY

 HEY GO GET ME SOMETHING

 HEY

 LOOK AT THE SKY TURN A HELL-FIRE RED, LORD

 SOMEBODY'S HOUSE IS BURNING

 DOWN DOWN DOWN DOWN 

 LOOK AT THE SKY RUN A HELL-FIRE RED, LORD

 SOMEBODY'S HOUSE IS BURNING

 DOWN DOWN DOWN DOWN 

 

 WELL SOMEONE STEPPED FROM THE CROWD

 HE MAS NINETEEN MILES HIGH

 HE SHOUTS WE'RE TIRED AND DISGUSTED

 SO WE PAINT RED THROUGH THE SKY

 I SAY THE TRUTH IS STRAIGHT AHEAD

 SO DON'T BURN YOU SELF INSTEAD

 TRY TO LEARN INSTEAD OF BURN 

 HEAR WHAT I SAY

 YEAH YEAH

 

 SO I FINALLY RODE AWAY

 BYT I'LL NEVER FORGET THAT DAY

 CAUSE WHEN I REACHED THE VALLY

 I LOOKED WAY DOWN 'CROSS THE WAY

 A GIANT BOAT FROM SPACE 

 LANDED WITH EERIE GRACE

 AND CAME AND TAKE ALL THE DEAD AWAY

 

 HEY

 HEY

 HEY

 HEY WHAT'D I SAY

 LOOK AT THE SKY TURN A HELL-FIRE RED LORD

 SOMEDBODY'S HOUSE IS BURNING 

 DOWN DOWN DOWN DOWN

 LOOK AT THE SKY TURN A HELL-FIRE RED LORD 

 SOMEDBODY'S HOUSE IS BURNING 

 DOWN DOWN DOWN DOWN

 LOOK AT THE SKY TURN, LOOK AT THE SKY TURN A HELL-FIRE RED 

 

 

 Ooo Ooo Ooo

 Ooo Ooo Ooo

 Ooo Ooo Ooo

 COME ON BABY
