Arcade Fire - The Great Arcade Fire lyrics

One hot summer's day I was playing in the arcade I never thought I'd see flames Rising out of my favorite games Great arcade fire Great arcade fire Great arcade fire Great arcade fire I'm looking at our stage The lion in our cage They lit the cage on fire It was supposed to disappear Oh no, the lion's on fire The lion's on fire The lion's on fire The lion's on fire My god, the lion's on fire My good god, the lion's on fire When I was a little kid I was sleeping in my bed My mom said, "Wake up, sleepyhead The house is on fire, follow me" We ran downstairs past the burning Christmas tree Christmas on fire Christmas on fire Christmas on fire Christmas on fire Christmas on fire My god, Christmas on fire My good god, Christmas on fire Tonight This happens every time This happens every time This happens every time This happens every time
