We didn't start the fire (we didn't start it)
It was always burning since the world's been turning (oh)

But when we are gone, it will still go on (oh-yeah)
And on, and on, and on, and on
And on, and on, and on

outro

We didn't start the fire (fire)
It was always burning since the world's been turning
