Paradise is burning
It's been burning all day
Like the sacking of Rome
Or the burial of Pompeii
There goes my home
Like Hiroshima flattened
Or Atlantis drowned
Don't care how it happened
Gotta Get out of town
There goes my home
This boom town went bust
And The rats had already fled
In God We Trusted
And Now we're all dead
There goes my home
Everything's burned
burnedto the ground
everything’s lost,
there’s nothing to be found
There goes my home
There's more plagues to endure
There's no way to prepare
There's nothing to insure
The system is burnt bare
There goes my home
