lyrics

Fire on the river
Crowd gape in awe
“He’ hey, this is awesome”
“Ye’ah, give us more”

Crazy Mr Gunpowder
Lighting up the sky
Orchestrated detonators
Crowd on a high

When the fire licked the river
My memory kicked alight
By the wicked water
Young lovers kiss the night

Easy Mr Gunpowder
Beware old wounds
‘74 and twenty eleven
Echo in the tombs

Easy Mr Gunpowder
Our river runs deep
Let it be like a mirror
In a peaceful sleep

Remember this river
Remember this river
Fire on the river
Drama in the skies

Crazy man in a frenzy
Guy Faulkes in disguise
Flame from the fighter plane
Highlight of the night

Let her rip dump and burn
Disappear out of sight
