Burning

When the world is burning
when the world is burning
when the world is burning
and the whole economy does finally collapse
at least I'll have my money
to throw on the fire.
I will make it grow
just a little bit higher.
It'll give me warmth.
When the world is burning.

When the world is burning
when the world is burning
when the world is burning
and all the animals are dead
at least I will be soon to follow.
I won't have long, to wait
won't have to stick around and see
what this place looks like
when nothing green is left.
When the world is burning.

When the world is burning
when the world is burning
when the world is burning
I won't have to watch it go down alone.
For the time that we have left
I will have
some decent company.
I hope, I, am decent company
to those who need it
when the world, as we know it,
finally ends.
