Burn-Up Lyrics

A crumpled future in your fist
The killing streak ascends sun kissed
And the firestarter from within
Pokes out from fever blistered grin
 
King Salamander  that's his name
A desert maker  that's his aim
The benign cremator, branding iron in his hand
Eager and willing to torch the land
 
    All fire and brimstone
    This jack-o-lantern
    He likes to watch the buildings burn
 
His ardour smoulders, phosphorous flies
He radiates with urgence to hypnotise
Stoke the furnace, feed his need
This thirst for fire is all he seeks
He's the blazing rubber making tracks
The blue touch paper at your back
 
    All fire and brimstone
    This salamander king
    He basks while all around him burns
 
`Giddy-up, burn-up, not fade away'
These words ignite and pave his way
`Giddy-up, burn-up, stoke it up and turn it up'
He sings these words in fervid frame
 
    All fire and brimstone
    This jack-o-lantern
    He likes to watch the pyres burn
 
Jack be nimble, Jack be quick
Jack jump over the candlestick
