(K. Sevenzo, Andrew Baird)

Woke up this morning
Smelt something kinda strange
The smell of cotton burning
Or could my senses be deranged?
 Prayed that I was dreaming;
I’ll start the day again
If I keep my eyes from seeing
Won’t this problem go away?

Chorus

The house is on fire!
I wanna know why you can’t see;
The house is on fire!
What do we do,
Is anybody listening?
Fayah Fayah fayah fayah
Fayah fayah fayah x2

The flames just grew higher;
Reaching for my head.
I’m stuck with indecision;
I need sometime to hold my head!
Will fighting this inferno;
Guarantee it goes away?
Or will I be left here roasting;
Like my neighbour yesterday?

Chorus.
