Hammill Peter - Fireships Lyrics

Send "Fireships" ringtone to your cell

There's a smokescreen on the horizon

Fireships under sail tonight....

Here's the armada of souls

Here's the flotilla from god knows where:

From gopher-wood to the last of the ironclads

In common concert they send up the flares.

While we turn and turn around

The rocket hits the roof...

We never think that we'll get burned

We're fireproof

We think we're fireproof.

Keep a stiff upper lip

The band play on

Through the raising of the toast;

The captain's steady

At the attention on the bridge

It's surface matters

That appear to matter most.

We watch the galleons run aground

Still we stand aloof;

We never think that we'll get burned

We think we're fireproof.

We think we're fireproof

We never think that we'll get burnaed;

We sail on fireships

We never think so we'll get burned.

Straight for the eye of the hurricane

Down to the last eye tooth

We never think that we'll get burned

We think we're fireproof.

Here's the armada of light

Here's the flotilla for heaven's sake....

We're sailing under a flag of convenience

Casting our messages in bottles in our wake

So we turn and turn around

The rocket hits the roof...

We never think that we'll get burned

We think we're fireproof.

We never think that we'll get burned

We think we're fireproof.
