[Verse 1]
Kate Moss, 50 Cent, Obama is the President
Peace is scarce, no one dares, Litvinenko
Climate change, Live Aid, ketamine, new rave
Loose morals, hearts are hollow, Gaga on the radio
Down with self-esteem, another beauty magazine
Bridgeport, suicide, Facebook the face dies
Hedge funds, boys with guns, Nanny state mania
Immigration stole the nation, mother Russia, Abu Hamza

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
Putin has a breeding camp, Mugabe stamps his people out
The gallows take Saddam Hussein
The closing of Guantanamo Bay
Tracy Emin, Doherty, a new aristocracy
David Beckham, Posh Beckham, earthquake and vanity
The Rolling Stones still play, we all know Tom Cruise is -, lime light celebrities, the seas have lost integrity
Ian Huntley, Harold Shipman, Madeleine is still missing
20 virgins up in heaven was the cause of 9/11
[Chorus]
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

[Verse 3]
Sensitive Islamists, satire struggles to exist
Cartoons, teddy bears could start a holy war
X Factor, Glastonbury, Laura Marling, ecstasy
Prince Charles and Camilla, the media is a blood sucker
Tony Blair, Gordon Brown, their own careers before the crown
I'm still loyal to the queen, and she's still loyal to you and me
Credit crunch, cash for honours
Northern rock, John Prescott, Labour government you've embarrassed us all

[Chorus]
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
It was always burning since the worlds been turning
We didn't start the fire
No we didn't light it, but we tried to fight it
[Verse 4]
Advancing on the Israelites, terrorists for animal rights
Ununited generation, love is just a hippie notion
Queen mother laid to rest, absurd Diana inquests
The grace to the princess stand the test
All we have is our blood, our word and our flesh
Bombs over Baghdad, troops to Afghanistan
War on terror, friendly fire, what's the truth and what's a lie?
Man has made himself a slave to oil, porn, gold and fame
The empire weakens even further
Britain will be great forever
