Lyrics
We found her naked, convulsing in a temple of sin!
With entrails and wolf tails and animal skin.
Divination, desecration of the laws of our Lord,
A harlot of the devil's horde! She is the
Heart of the curse that has fallowed the land
But fate is now ours to command, we've got to
(Burn it down! Burn it down!) with fire!
(Burn it down! Burn it down!) with fire!
Fire! Throw her to the cleansing pyre!
Drink in her screams as the flesh melts away,
Satan will claim her today!
"Fools! You Fools! My master is near!
Weep to your god as you cower in fear!
Flesh melts away but my powers remain
By fire you all shall be slain! All your
Temples, your houses, the children you've raised
All shall succumb to the blaze! Now I will"
(Burn it down! Burn it down!) with fire!
(Burn it down! Burn it down!) with fire!
Fire! Growing in a raging pyre!
Higher and higher, swallowed by the cursed hellfire!
Feast on your souls as your bodies decay,
The master of sorrows will steal you away!
(Burn it down! Burn it down!) with fire!
(Burn it down! Burn it down!) with fire!
Fire! Growing in a raging pyre!
Higher and higher, swallowed by the cursed hellfire!
Relish your screams as your bodies decay,
Satan, my master, will claim you today!
