[Chorus] The Earth, the Earth, the Earth is on fire We don't have no daughter Let the motherf**er burn [verse 1] We are all hungry, we are all tired Our tongues they are all on fire The walls that we build are higher, higher, higher, higher, higher [verse 2] Strange days lead to strange nights You aren't afraid of the dark, dark, dark, dark When it's where you walk, walk, walk, walk When it's where you live to hide [pre-Chorus] Every day the sky gets lower, lower, lower, lower And every day the tide gets blacker, blacker, blacker, blacker And every day the flames get higher, higher, higher, higher Yeah, every day the flames get higher, higher, higher, higher [Chorus] [Chorus 2] The Earth, the Earth, the Earth is on fire! If we cut off the water Then the jackals would return [Chorus] [Chorus 2] [bridge 1] [verse 3] We live like lions, we live our lives With no more husbands, no more wives We let our children multiply 'cause we're afraid of dying [pre-Chorus] [Chorus] [Chorus 2] [Chorus] [bridge 2] [Chorus] [Chorus 2] [x2]
