[Intro]                [Chorus] There is fire on the mountain And nobody seems to be on the run Oh there is fire on the mountain top                 Bbmaj7    Bbsus2   Bbmaj7 And no one is a-runnin’ [Verse 1] I wake up in the mornin’ Tell you what I see on my TV screen I see the blood of an innocent child                 Bbmaj7    Bbsus2   Bbmaj7 And everybody’s watchin’ [Verse 2] Now I’m looking out my window And what do I see? I see an army of a soldier man Marching across the street yeah        [Verse 3] Hey Mr. Soldier man Tomorrow is the day you go to war But you are fighting for another man’s cause                    Bbmaj7    Bbsus2   Bbmaj7 And you don’t even know him [Verse 4] 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?            [Chorus] so...There is fire on the mountain And nobody seems to be on the run Oh there is fire on the mountain top                 Bbmaj7    Bbsus2   Bbmaj7 And no one is a-runnin’ [Verse 5] Hey Mr. Lover man Can I get a chance to talk to you? ’Cause you are fooling with a dead man’s corpse                    Bbmaj7        Bbsus2   Bbmaj7      And you don’t know what you do {Verse 6] 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           Bbmaj7                                Bbsus2    Bbmaj7 Don’t you think there something wrong with this? [Verse 7] Tell me! Who’s responsible for what we teach our children?    Is it the Internet or the stars on television? Why? Oh why? Why? Oh Why? Oh!             [Verse 8] 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 [Chorus] For there is fire on the mountain And nobody seems to be on the run Oh there is fire on the mountain top                 Bbmaj7    Bbsus2   Bbmaj7 And no one is a-runnin’ [Bridge] One day the river will overflow And there’ll be no where for us to go And we will run run Wishing we had put out the fire oh!!!         [Chorus] For there is fire on the mountain And nobody seems to be on the run Oh there is fire on the mountain top                 Bbmaj7    Bbsus2   Bbmaj7 And no one is a-runnin’ [Chorus] For there is fire on the mountain And nobody seems to be on the run Oh there is fire on the mountain top                 Bbmaj7    Bbsus2   Bbmaj7 And no one is a-runnin’

Cette chanson évoque un sentiment de désespoir et d'angoisse face à des injustices et des souffrances visibles dans le monde. L'artiste aborde des thèmes comme la violence, la guerre et l'impact négatif de l'environnement médiatique sur les jeunes. À travers des scènes poignantes, elle interpelle sur la responsabilité collective de notre société quant aux valeurs que nous transmettons, surtout aux enfants, tout en dénonçant l’indifférence face à la tragédie humaine. Le contexte, sous-jacent à ces paroles, peut être vu dans le cadre des conflits armés contemporains, où des individus se battent pour des causes qui ne leur appartiennent pas, poussés par un sens du devoir ou une obligation envers leur pays. En parallèle, elle souligne des réalités troublantes liées aux relations sociales et amoureuses, dans lesquelles des promesses sont souvent entachées par des sacrifices. Tout cela soulève une réflexion cruciale sur notre engagement et notre intermédiaire dans ces transformations douloureuses du monde.
