Fire On The Mountain

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' ah 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 of my window and what do I see I see an army of soldiers that're marching across the street heh Hey Mr soldier man tomorrow is the day you go to war But 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' ah running Heh Mister Loverman 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' ah 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 fire on the mountain top and no one is' ah running Oh yes For there is fire on the mountain and nobody seems to be on the run fire on the mountain top no one is' ah running
