Lyrics:

At the first stroke it will be there oclock precisely
The day the earth caught fire
We stod outside the world was laughing
And the city square
The cast umbrellas to the sky
The sun above my head was burning greedy red
The horns began to blow three cheers for Jericho
The first evacuee
I was headed for the sea I saw them
The roadside refugees
The boys with bloody knees who waved
Abandoned cars that lay too tired to drive away
A world in flames today was all the papers had to say

Run for your life the earths caught fire
Run for your life the earths caught fire
Run, run, run
The earths on fire....ooh

The streetcar prophet said
You tought that God was dead I warned you
The sinners and the saved
They fell down to their knees and prayed
Believers held their breath and stoned a witch to death
The leaders and the led said Blow the bloody Reds away...oh yeah

Run for your life the earths caught fire
Run for your life the earths caught fire
Run, run, run
Run for your life the earths caught fire
Run for your life the earths caught fire
Run, run, run
Hmmm....you better run
You better run...oh yeah
Run for your life...your life
The earths on fire...ooh
Run for your life the earths caught fire
Run for your life the earths caught fire
Run, run, run
Run for your life
Run for your life
Run for your life the earths caught fire
Run for your life
