We Didn't Start the Fire Lyrics

Birth control, Ho Chi Minh, Richard Nixon back again,
Moonshot, woodstock, watergate, punk rock,
Reagan, palestine, terror on the airline,
Ayatolloahs in Iran, we are in afghanistan,
Lawrence of arabia, british beatlemania,
Ole miss john glenn, liston beats patterson,
Pope Paul, malcolm X, british politician sex,
JFK blown away, what else do I have to say?

We didn't start the fire,
It was always burning since the worlds been turning,
We didn't start the fire,
But when we are gone will it still burn on,
And on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on,
And on, and on, and on, and on, and oooooooh

Wheel of fourtune, sally ride, heavy metal, suicide,
Foreign debts, homeless pets, AIDS, crack, bernie goetz
Hypodermics on the shores, chinas inder martial law,
Rock and roller cola wars, I can't take it anymore

We didn't start the fire,
It was always burning since the worlds been turning,
We didn't start the fire,
No we didn't light it but we tried to fight it,

We didn't start the fire,
It was always burning since the worlds been turning,
We didn't start the fire,
But when we are gone will it still burn on,
And on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on,
And on, and on, and on, and on, and oooooooh
