Large fires are breaking out
All over the world
But still some people
Show up for choir practice
As if standing in the midst
Of the smoke and flames
Singing their souls right out
Of their bodies the will to sing
Is so strong in them
For twenty minutes or so
Which is as long as it takes
For a burning at the stake
Before the choirmaster screams
Yes yes but now once more
Let it burn you let it burn
Till there is nothing left but gold
