Lyrics
I'm fixing to be
On a hilltop by the sea
Where the vile scum of the city
Cannot come within half a mile of me
They're burning up the vista
They're burning my surroundings bear
For no better reason
They want the crown I wear
Always looking for a way to fuel the fire
I'm moving my feet
They are ravenous can't you see
All the signs, the signs of the feast
Oh how beautifully done, how tender the meat
They're burning up the vista
They're burning my surroundings down
For no better reason
They want to wear my crown
Always looking for a way to fuel the fire
They're burning up the vista
They're burning my whole world down
For no better reason
They want to steal my crown, take me down, and burn me to the ground
Always looking for a way to fuel the fire
