Build A Fire (Original) Lyrics by The KLF

The White Room (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)

0

[Verse 1]
We've driven all day and most of the night
From the Galloway Hills through the city lights
Just followed the road, not much was said
Filled up with gas when the needle touched the red
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Sitting here, I watch the flames
They climb higher and they take me again
And sometimes I remember when
Remember dreams, you can't trust them
[Chorus]
Build a fire
They're gonna build a fire
Gonna build a fire
They're gonna build a fire
[Verse 2]
Pulled up to rest, let the engine cool awhile
Open the beams, gathered wood for the fire
I hummed this tune to all the girls I've known
Should I care about the chances I've blown?
[Pre-Chorus 2]
But don't forget there's less to life
Than blowing your mind in some trashed out car
And don't forget to die the death
Of a hero with nothing left
[Chorus]
Build a fire
They're gonna build a fire
[Instrumental]
[Chorus]
They're gonna build a fire
They're gonna build a fire
Build a fire
They're gonna build a fire
They're gonna build a fire
They're gonna build a fire
[Verse 3]
When daylight breaks, we'll be down that road
Rockman and me with a lighter load
We'll stop for lunch in some taco bar
Lee Marvin on the jukebox, "Wand'rin' Star"
[Pre-Chorus 2]
But don't forget there's less to life
Than blowing your mind in some trashed out car
And don't forget die the death
Of a hero with nothing left
[Chorus]
Build a fire
They're gonna build a fire
Gonna build a fire
Gonna build a fire
Build a fire
They're gonna build a fire
Build a fire
They're gonna build a fire
[Outro]
Ooh...
