Burning Sky Songtext
von The Uptones

I seen you on the news, yeah, with a big plastic smile
Just talkin′ 'bout your views, yeah, and I wish you′d show some style
You're talkin' ′bout national pride, how it fills you up inside
To see the youth marching in line, holding the flag to the sky

Just because you are winning, it does not mean that you′re right
And just because you are grinning now, it don't mean the end of the fight
Just because you are winning, it does not mean that you′re right
And just because you are grinning now, it don't mean the end of the fight


Well I′ve seen pictures of you and I, beneath the burning sky
Standing at the end of time, beneath the burning sky
Pictures of you and I, beneath the burning sky

Pictures of Iceland, yeah, you're talkin′ 'bout world peace
Pictures of Iran, yeah, you're lying through your teeth
Nobody knows your policy, well, you ain′t got no policy
You just stand and pose with the army, take your picture, that′s diplomacy

Just because you are winning, it does not mean that you're right
And just because you are grinning now, it don′t mean the end of the fight
Just because you are winning, it does not mean that you're right
Just because you are grinning now, it don′t mean the end of the fight


Well I've seen pictures of you and I, beneath the burning sky
Standing at the end of time, beneath the burning sky
Pictures of you and I, beneath the burning sky
