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

Lie-lalalala-lie-lalalala
Lie-lalalala-lie-la-lie-la
Lie-lalalala-lie-lalalala
Lie-lalalala-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

Lie-lalalala-lie-lalalala
Lie-lalalala-lie-la-lie-la
Lie-lalalala-lie-lalalala
Lie-lalalala-lie-la-lie-la-lie

Lie-lalalala-lie-lalalala
Lie-lalalala-lie-la-lie-la
Lie-lalalala-lie-lalalala
Lie-lalalala-lie-la-lie-la-lie
