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 runnin'
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 my window
And what do I see?
I see an army of a soldier man
Marching across the street
Hey, mister soldier man
Tomorrow is the day you go to war
Boy, you are fighting for another man's cause
And you don't even know him
What did he say to make you so blind?
To you 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 runnin'
Hey, mister lover man
Can I get a chance to talk to you?
'Cause you are fooling with a dead man's corpse
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 that?
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
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
Fire on the mountain
And nobody seems to be on the run
Fire on the mountain top
And no one is runnin'
Fire on the mountain
Fire
And nobody seems to be on the run
There is fire on the mountain top
And no one is runnin'
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
Fire on the mountain
Nobody seems to be on the run
Fire on the mountain top
And no one is runnin'
Fire on the mountain
Fire, fire
Nobody seems to be on the run
Fire on the mountain top
And no one is runnin'
(Fire on the mountain
Nobody seems to be on the run
Fire on the mountain top
Oh, there's fire
Fire on the mountain top
Fire on the mountain top
And no one is
Farewell, there is fire
