we didn’t start the fire (oh oh oh, whoa oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
it was always burning since the world’s been turning.
(oh oh oh) we didn’t start the fire, but when we are gone
it will still burn on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on

we didn’t start the fire
it was always burning, since the world’s 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 yeah yeah
it was always burning, since the world’s been turning
we didn’t start the fire, yeah yeah yeah
