Root of All Evil Songtext
von The Dandy Warhols

I might be preaching to the choir
But the root of all evil is desire
And human nature is to acquire
Fire

The idiots rule ′cause they conspire
Political-minded people should all retire
They keep going around, around, around, around, around, around
Like a tire

I wanna get higher, higher
Higher, higher


We're getting down to the wire
The city is like a funeral pyre
Always lead by someone who is a liar
You never hear it from the town crier

Fire, fire, fire
It′s only gonna get higher and higher
And higher and higher

Sea level is getting higher
The polar bears are getting tired
They need to get -
More wired
It's dire

I wanna get higher, higher
Higher and higher
Higher, higher and higher
It's only gonna get higher and higher
And higher and higher
