LYRICS FOR "City Is Burning"
Society reflects tonight
An ugly mirror showing an animal instinct
A twisted way to wrong a right
How many dead before the sun comes arising
Lock your doors and close your eyes
Sit back and you watch TV while the problem grows outside
Lock your doors and shut off your mind
While you are safe inside the city is burning tonight
Blinding lights burn in the sky
A mass of shadows darkness usually hides
Animals out of their cage
Burn their own environment without any shame
Lock your doors and close your eyes
Sit back and you watch TV while the problem grows outside
Lock your doors and shut off your mind
While you are safe inside the city
So your guess is as good as mine
Will any good come out of this we'll know in time
Until that time let's not regress
Our lesson before there's another uprising
Lock your doors and close your eyes
Sit back and you watch TV while problem grows outside
Lock your doors and shut off your mind
While you are safe inside the city is burning tonight
Lock your doors and close your eyes
(The city is burning tonight)
Lock your doors and close your eyes
(The city is burning tonight)
Lock your doors and close your eyes
(The city is burning tonight)
