XTC - Sacrificial Bonfire - Remastered 2001 lyrics

Artist: XTC

album: Skylarking


Fire they cried
So evil must die
And yields are good
So men pull back hoods and smile
The scapegoat blood spilled
Spittled and grilled
It crackled and spat
And children grew fat on the meat

Change must be earnt
Sacrificial bonfire must burn
Burn up the old
Bring in the new
Burn up the old
Bring in the new

Assembled on high
Silhouette against the sky
The smoke prayed and pranced
And sparks did their dance in the wind
Disguises wore thin
With less and less skin
And the clothes that were draped
Was all that told man from ape

Change must be earnt
Sacrificial bonfire must reign
Reign over good
Banish the bad
Oh, reign over good
Banish the bad, oh
