文本歌词

There is fire on the mountain and nobody seems to be on the run
Oh there is fire on the mountain top and no one is a' running
I wake up in the morning tell you what I see on my TV screen
I see the blood of an innocent child and everybody's watching
Now I'm looking out my window and what do I see
I see an army of a soldier man marching across the street hey
Hey Mr. soldier man tomorrow is the day you go to war
Boy you are fighting for another man's 'cause and you don't even know him
What did they say to make you so blind to your conscience and reason
Could it be love for your country or for the gun you use in killing
So there is fire on the mountain and nobody seems to be on the run
Oh there is fire on the mountain top and no one is a' running
Hey Mister Lover-man can I get a chance to talk to you
Cause you are fooling with a dead man's corpse and you don't know what you do
So you say you have a lover and you love her like no other
So you buy her a diamond that someone has died on
Don't you think there's something wrong with this
Tell me who's responsible for what we teach our children
Is it the internet or the stars on television
Why oh why Why oh why oh Oh
So little Lucy turns sixteen and like the movie she's been seeing
She has a lover in her daddy she can't tell nobody till she makes the evening news
For there is fire on the mountain and nobody seems to be on the run
Oh there is fire on the mountain top and no one is a' running
Oh yes
One day the river will overflow and there'll be nowhere for us to go
And we will run run wishing we had put out the fire oh no
For there is fire on the mountain and nobody seems to be on the run
Oh there is fire on the mountain top and no one is a' running
So yeah yeah yeah
There is fire on the mountain
Fire in Africa
And nobody seems to be on the run
Everywhere can't they see eh
Oh there is fire on the mountain top and no-one is a' running
No-one is a running
There is fire on the mountain
Fire fire fire
And nobody seems to be on the run
