Hanson - Fire on the Mountain lyrics

we sit secure in time-honored traditions made never wondering where or when the sickle may come If we don't seek our knowledge to be greater men When the rain starts falling gonna drown before we get our feet wet We build our ivory towers to protect us from the flood A fleet of vessels made of wood so they won't rust But can we see the bottom of the bottle when we start to drink? There's fire on the mountain fire and it's coming our way Can we pick the pieces up We're mending Babylon Tryin' to right the wrong Can we pick the pieces up Live learn life love die dust gone There's fire on the mountain Can we pick the pieces up We're mending Babylon Tryin' to right the wrong Can we pick the pieces up Live learn life love die dust gone
