Lyrics
Liar, liar the world's on fire Whatcha gonna do when it all burns down? Fire, fire burning higher Still got time to turn it all around Now I ain't one for speaking out much But that don't mean I don't stay in touch Everybody's trippin' over this or that What we gonna do when we all fall flat? Liar, liar the world's on fire What we gonna do when it all burns down? I don't know what to think about us When did we lose in God we trust God Almighty, what we gonna do If God ain't listenin' and we're deaf too Liar, liar the world's on fire Whatcha gonna do when it all burns down? Fire, fire burning higher Still got time to turn it all around Don't get me started on politics Now how are we to live in a world like this Greedy politicians, present and past They wouldn't know the truth if it bit 'em in the ass (Whatcha gonna do?) Now tell me what is truth? (Whatcha gonna do?) Have we all lost sight (Whatcha gonna do?) Of common decency? (Whatcha gonna do?) Of the wrong and right? How do we heal this great divide? Do we care enough to try? Liar, liar the world's on fire What we gonna do when it all burns down? Billy got a gun, Joey got a knife Janey got a sign to carry in the fight Marching in the streets with sticks and stones Don't you ever believe words don't break bones Oh, can we rise above? Can't we show some love? Do we just give up Or make a change? We know all too well We've all been through hell Time to break the spell In Heaven's name Liar, liar the world's on fire Whatcha gonna do when it all burns down? Fire, fire burning higher Still got time to turn it all around Liar, liar the world's on fire Whatcha gonna do when it all burns down? Fire, fire burning higher Still got time to turn it all around (Liar, liar, the world's on fire) (Whatcha gonna do when it all burns down?) (Liar, liar, the world's on fire) (Whatcha gonna do when it all burns down?) Show some love (liar, liar, the world's on fire) (Still got time to turn it all around) Let's rise above (liar, liar, the world's on fire) (Whatcha gonna do when it all burns down?) Let's make a stand (liar, liar, the world's on fire) (Whatcha gonna do when it all burns down?) Let's lend a hand (liar, liar, the world's on fire) (Still got time to turn it all around) Let's heal the hurt (liar, Liar, the world's on fire) (Whatcha gonna do when it all burns down?) Let kindness work (liar, liar, the world's on fire) (Whatcha gonna do when it all burns down?) Let's be a friend (liar, liar, the world's on fire) (Whatcha gonna do when it all burns down?) Let hatred end (liar, liar, the world's on fire) (Whatcha gonna do) Liar, liar, the world's on fire Whatcha gonna do when it all burns down? Liar, liar, the world's on fire Whatcha gonna do when it all burns down?
