Burning Man

Now once upon a time there was a scholar

Who packed his books and bags to see the world

He never pissed away a single dollar

And never even kissed a pretty girl

He roamed around the mountains and the rivers

And went to sleep wherever he laid down

But then one night in pale moonlight

He heard the strangest sound

 

He started up, his heart was full of wonder

He saw a fire burning in the sky

And then he heard the noise of rolling thunder

A million drunken angels passing by

From deep within he heard a hundred voices

That said: We all must play our part

And sang a song that came up from

The bottom of their hearts

 

Chorus

Lie-laalalala-lie-laalalala

Lie-laalalala-lie-la-lie-la

Lie-laalalala-lie-laalalala

Lie-laalalala-lie-la-lie-la-lie

 

He found himself surrounded by some dancers

Who put his bags and fortune to the flames

They told him: If you’re looking for some answers

You’re gonna have to lose this crazy game

They found a letter lying in the ashes

With words so clear and strong

No matter what, I’m better off

And stay where there are songs


Chorus 

Lie-laalalala-lie-laalalala

Lie-laalalala-lie-la-lie-la

Lie-laalalala-lie-laalalala

Lie-laalalala-lie-la-lie-la-lie
