Sacrificial Bonfire lyrics
Song information
Artist: Xtc Album: Skylarking
Lyrics
Fire they cried So evil must die And yields are good So men pull back hoods and smile
The scapegoat blood spilled Spittled and grilled it crackled and spat And children grew fat on the meat Change must be earnt Sacrificial bonfire must burn Burn up the old Bring in the new
Burn up the old Bring in the new
Assembled on high Silhouette against the sky The smoke prayed and pranced And sparks did their dance in the wind Disguises wore thin with less and less skin And the clothes that were draped Was all that told man from ape Change must be earnt Sacrificial bonfire must reign Reign over good Banish the bad
Oh,reign over good Banish the bad, oh, ohh
