Burn Down The Mission Meaning
| [[Verse 1] You tell me there’s an angel in your tree Did he say he’d come to call on me? For things are getting desperate in our home Living in the parish of the restless folks I know [Pre-Chorus] Everybody now, bring your family down to the riverside Look to the east to see where the fat stock hide Behind four walls of stone the rich man sleeps It’s time we put the flame torch to their keep [Chorus] Burn down the mission If we’re gonna stay alive Watch the black smoke fly to heaven See the red flame light the sky Burn down the mission Burn it down to stay alive It’s our only chance of living Take all you need to live inside [Instrumental Break 02:01-03:05] [Verse 2] Deep in the woods the squirrels are out today My wife cried when they came to take me away, yeah But what more could I do just to keep her warm Than burn, burn, burn, burn, down the mission walls? , [Pre-Chorus] Now everybody, bring your family down to the riverside Look to the east to see where the fat stock hide Behind four walls of stone the rich man sleeps It’s time we put the flame torch to their keep [Chorus] Burn down the mission, Lord If we’re gonna stay alive Watch the black smoke fly to heaven See the red flame light the sky Burn down the mission, Lord If we’re gonna stay alive It’s our only chance of living Take all you need to live inside [Instrumental Outro]] |
