Watching The World On Fire (after Billy Joel)

Watching The World On Fire
by Lue Lyron (after Billy Joel)

YouTube, LSU,
RuPaul picks the winning boobs,
Giving Palestine the least, making peace in Middle East

Australian bush fires
Elan’s truck has new tires
Adam Schiff positions- Bankrupt Boy Scouts (riff)

Peter Pan, Wuhan, Tensions rising with Iran
Nancy ripping speeches while the President touts

Dow Jones, tops out, viruses are in doubt
BTS on late night, going out for date night
Shooting schools, Bat soup,
Buy vagina candles Goop
President’s acquitted while the Senate’s leaning right

Watching the World on Fire
With a flame horizon, it’s desensitizing
Watching the world on Fire
Blowing smoke that’s rising
Chicks explode at Tyson



Buttigeig, Klobuchar, say that Sander’s too far
Left-wing, fight ring, Brady left the Pats
Soleimani gets killed, Delta’s dumping jet fuel
Billionaire Bloomberg, buying Democrats


Want to eat, KFC
No one’s heard of PPE
Socialists, distant, it’s a Communist plot
Warren plans a long ride, Iowa, they can’t decide
Learning how to Tootsie Slide, on the Tik Tok
Watching The World on Fire
Stimulus to borrow, but there’s no tomorrow
Watching the World on Fire
If it goes ka-blooey, Billy Joel, can’t sue me
Fauci, should we wear a mask?
Cheaper gallons of gas
COVID’s finally realized,
Boris is hospitalized,
Italy, looks sad, Donald Trump is looking mad
Pitter patter, Twitter, social media’s dumb
Moving to a new town
Now we’re on lockdown
Drink bleach, overreach,
UV up your bum

Watching the World on Fire
One percent is earning, while the karma’s turning
Watching the World on Fire
Situation screwy, Billy Joel, don’t sue me
Out of work, everywhere
Sitting home in underwear
Will they get what they deserve?
Barely bringing down the curve
(hammer-ons)
Tests, nobody knows
When’s a swab go up my nose?
Tickled brain, pickled brain
Run away from home school

Watching the World on Fire
If it goes ka-blooey, Billy Joel, can’t sue me

Workers on the frontline
Say goodbye to John Prine
Meatpackers, kickbackers, Billionaires, on top
Baseball, South Korea
No TP, no panacea
Plandemic, hopscotch
Quarantine, stop.

What a time to graduate
Murder Hornets, Liberate
Gates open, vaccine
Try hydroxychloroquine

Watching The World on Fire
Stimulus to borrow, but there’s no tomorrow

Zoom cam, newsfeed,
Biden gaffes and Tara Reade
Juice WRLD, Travis Scott
Social distance, forgot
Stimulus, socialist,
Virus on the A-List
Need complete immunity
Antibody, anybody
Home to pray, home to stay
Postal service, disarray
Luke Skywalker’s daughter’s Rey
What else do I have to say?
Watching the World on Fire
With a flame horizon, it’s desensitizing
Watching the world on Fire
Blowing smoke that’s rising
Chickens explode at Tyson

Watching the World on Fire
One percent is earning, while the karma’s turning
Watching the World on Fire
Situation screwy, Billy Joel, don’t sue me

Watching The World on Fire
Stimulus to borrow, but there’s no tomorrow
Watching the World on Fire
If it goes ka-blooey, Billy Joel, can’t sue me

When we’re gone, we’re gone, we’re gone, we’re gone
We’re gone, we’re gone, we’re gone, we’re gone

Watching the world on fire
Situation screwy, Billy Joel, don’t sue me

Watching the world on fire
If it goes ka-blooey, Billy Joel, can’t sue me

We didn’t start the fire
we were trying to protest to the bunkered POTUS

Watching the world on fire
you say all lives matter
but the windows shatter

Watching the world on fire
hope for justice at last, crying through the tear gas
Watching the world on fire
Though we stand united, some are trying to riot
Remember Black Lives Matter
we need conversation, for a fairer nation
