Asa (Asha)Fire On The Mountain

There is fire on the mountain,

And nobody seems to be on the run.

Oh there is fire on the mountain top,

And no one is a running.

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 of my window,

And what do I see ?

I see an army of a Soldier-man marching
Across the street, heh... 

What did they 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 ? So...

There is fire on the mountain,

And nobody seems to be on the run.

Oh there is fire on the mountain top,

And no one is a running

Heh, Mister Loverman !

Can I get a chance to talk to you ?

'cause you are fooling with a dead man's corpse,

And you don't know what you do. Oh... 

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...

Till she makes the evening news.

For there is fire on the mountain,

and nobody seems to be on the run.

Oh there is fire on the mountain top,

and no one is'ah running. Oh yes.

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, oh no...

For there is fire on the mountain, yeah yeah

And nobody seems to be on the run. (And their aint nobody nobody oh there is)

Oh there is fire on the mountain top, ( fire on the mountain)

And no one is a running. ( so yeah yeah yeah)

There is fire on the mountain, ( Fire in Africa oh)

And nobody seems to be on the run. (Fire Everywhere in the city)

Oh there is fire on the mountain top, (On the land, In the planet)

No one is a running.
