Wink at your own reflection
Believe your own bitter lies
People claiming rights to all the things they didn't earn
First class tickets. Destination: The point of no return
Don't care that they hate themself, that's none of my concern
I'm just gonna sit up on the roof and watch the world burn
The most fabulous victim
Give that lady a prize
All the choices in the world and helpless to discern
But I'm not gonna waste my breath. Nobody wants to learn
You can have my place in line man. I don't want a turn
I'm just gonna sit up on the roof and watch the world burn
Pride before destruction
Conceit before the fall
Be careful then for what you wish, the meed for which you yearn
The wisdom of a thousand years you seek to overturn
Whilst parroting the Logos of the very gods you spurn
I'm just gonna sit up on the roof and watch the world burn.
