Fire On The Mountain

There is fire on the mountain and nobody seems to be on the run
There is fire on the mountain top and no one is running
One day the river will overflow and there'll be nowhere for us to go
And we will run, run wishing we had put out the fire

I wake up in the morning tell you what I see on my TV screen
I see the blood of an innocent child and everybody's watching
Now I'm looking out my window and what do I see
I see an army of a soldier man marching across the street

Mr. soldier man tomorrow is the day you go to war
But you are fighting for another man's cause and you don't even know him
What did he say to make you so blind to your conscience and reason
Could it be love for your country or for the gun you use in killing

Mr. Lover man can I get a chance to talk to you because you are fooling 
With a dead man's corpse and you don't know what you do
So you say you have a lover and you love her like no other so you buy her a diamond 
That someone has died on don't you think there's something wrong with this?

Tell me who's responsible for what we teach our children?
Is it the internet or the stars on television why o why o
So little Lucy turns sixteen and like the movie she's been seeing
She has a lover in her daddy she can't tell nobody until she makes the evening news
