While Rome Burns Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Mountains of money

Men dressed up as news

And we fiddle while Rome burns

They're pissing away

What others died to create

We fiddle while Rome burns

Like Orwell's doublespeak

They're taking their cues

And we fiddle while Rome burns



[Chorus 1]

The Interstates connect more than divide

Free will can only survive



[Verse 2]

Time to face the music

Time to make the fur fly

We fiddle while Rome burns

Too clever by half

They play the short game

And we fiddle while Rome burns

No turning back the clock

There must be hope in this hell

We fiddle while Rome burns



[Chorus 2]

And the Freeways lead to the gravel roads

To the town squares and the rodeos



[Outro]

While Rome burns

Why Rome burns

While Rome burns

Why Rome burns
