Yeah Said hey Hey said that Hey Look at the sky runt a hell-fire 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 In my chariot and rode off to see Just why and who could it be this time Yeah yea yeah yeah Sisters and brothers 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 was 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 But I'll never forget that day Cause when I reached the valley 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 Somebody's house is burning Down down down down Look at the sky turn a hell-fire red lord Somebody's house is burning Down down down down Look at the sky turn, look at the sky turn a hell-fire red
