Lyrics

[Verse 1] Fire they cried So evil must die And yields are good So men pull back hoods And smile The scapegoat blood spilled Spittled and grilled It crackled and spat And children grew fat On the meat Change must be earned [Chorus] Sacrificial bonfire Must burn Burn up the old Ring in the new Burn up the old Ring in the new [Verse 2] Assembled on high Silhouette against the sky The smoke prayed and pranced And sparks did their dance In the wind Disguises wore thin With less and less skin And the clothes that were draped Was all that told man From ape Change must be earned [Chorus] Sacrificial bonfire Must reign Reign over good Banish the bad Reign over good Banish the bad Oh
