lyrics

As the world burns

Imagine an old man
Sittin’ in the shade
Sittin’ in front of his house
Sittin’ and watchin’ the world
From under his hat
While he is watchin’ her
While she is dancin’
Dancin’ in a black veil
Barefoot dancin’
In a black veil

See that old man
Sittin’in the shade
Sittin’ and chewin’ coka leaves
Sittin’ and starin’ into the dessert
From under his hat
While he is watchin’ her
While she is dancin’
Dancin’ in a black veil
Barefoot dancin’
In a black veil

Yo woman of evil
Why did yo do all that to me
While I was livin’ my live.
Yo evil woman
Why did you have to do that to me,
Mindin’ my own bussiness.
I doin’ my own thing
Never sittin’ on someone else’s chair.
Doin’ my own thing
Not treatin’ anybody unfair.
Meanwhile you was spreadin’
Yo evil ways and hurt
Me and my people
Until there was no one left
To talk to while yo
Was dancin’
And still do………….

As the world burns
