Testi musica canzoni

The day the Earth caught fire

We stood outside the world was laughing

And in the city square

They cast umbrellas to the sky

The sun above my head was burning greedy red

The horns began to blow "Three Cheers for jericho"


The first evacuee

I was headed for the sea, I saw them

The roadside refugees

The boys with bloody knees who waved

Abandoned cars that lay too tired to drive away

"A World in Flames Today" was all the papers

had to say


Run for your life (The Earth's caught fire)

Run for your life (The Earth's caught fire)

Run, run, run

Run for your life (The Earth's on fire)

Run for your life (The Earth's on fire)

Run, run, run


The streetcar prophet said,

"You thought that God was dead-I warned you

The sinners and the saved

They fell down to their knees and prayed

Believers held their breath and stoned a witch to death

The leaders and the led said "Blow the bloody

Reds away!"


Run for your life (The Earth's caught fire)

Run for your life (The Earth's caught fire)

Run, run, run

Run for your life (The Earth's on fire)

Run for your life (The Earth's on fire)

Run. run, run
