Pop, pop, ba-da-da-da-da
Pop, pop, ba-da-da-da-da
Music kept playing when the smoke went up
Bought a little liquor from a Starfall cup
Everybody kept dancing, Rome was burning
The world just keeps on turning
Music kept playing when the smoke went up
Ever wonder how they even made a Starfall cup
Everybody kept dancing, Rome was burning
The world just keeps on turning
Just wait until your axis of power unravels
Watch it all fall down like the Tower of Babel
It's all happened before, you can read it in the Torah
The same thing that happened back in Sodom and Gomorrah
They call it the Gentleman's Club to make it sound pretty
How witty, but I say welcome to Sin City
And last time he flooded it, then showed us the covenant
But do you trust in it, the way that you trust in your government
It's going up in flames, it's a slow burn
Like we're waiting till it's at the point
And over the top, it's a slow burn
Maybe your way of thinking is rearranging as I speak
Maybe just like God has said, just be the change you want to see
Instead of taking it for granted
Until you lose it, you can fiddle as Rome burns
But will you face the music?
They either scared to speak the truth or they don't know
To keep their mouths shut, even though it's right under their nose
Music kept playing when the smoke went up
Your feet gone blind before your Starfall cup
Everybody kept dancing, Rome was burning
The world just keeps on turning
Music kept playing when the smoke went up
How you even gonna cycle that Starfall cup?
Everybody kept dancing, Rome was burning
The world just keeps on turning
Instead of slowing down and paying attention, they move faster
It might take a worldwide natural disaster
You don't know the mother is your earth, you *
Think you make it to heaven cause how you paid your pastor
Think it's hunky-dory like you live with no concerns
Think it's all * to giggles, you fiddle while running around in your car
Rome burns, will these lyrics even reach you?
If you don't really care
It's sick the way they teach you and they leave you ill-prepared
They march you to the slaughter, pray you don't follow them there
They diggin' they own grave and they fallin' they own snare
But you don't care about this world, you live in it
You gon' wait to repent to the last minute
Then make it to Nirvana until then it's never mine
The four horsemen ain't enough, you gon' wait for the seven signs
We all in this, get ready for apocalypse
Ain't no escape unless you got yourself a life to live
Use the cup flame when the smoke went up
There ain't nothin' green about a styrofoam cup
Everybody kept dancin', Rome was burnin'
The world just keeps on turnin'
Use the cup flame when the smoke went up
I bet your microwave safe with your styrofoam cup
Everybody kept dancin', Rome was burnin'
The world just keeps on turnin'
The fame, the games, the glitter, the gold
The Facebook, the Twitter, it's all crowdfired
Y'all control, change the way you thinkin'
That's the rebel movement
Your spirit starts awakenin', that's the revolution
Your ideas of a family like this all good
That * ain't even real, you got that from Hollywood
He feels like he can't achieve it so he's somewhere in a hotel
In California fornicatin' with a Jezebel
Act like it's all positive when so much here is negative
And you'll be lukewarm like you faded up and said it is
But I know this American pie and peaches and creams
And it's candy coated like...
Sweet as it seems
Look at the way they takin' freedom away
Give you the illusion of freedom just to keep you at bay
And you can't even see it though it's so close to home
If they could control the mob, then they could control Rome
Use the cup flame when the smoke went up
Fiberglass, new ports, and a styrofoam cup
Everybody kept dancin' Rome was burnin'
The world just keeps on turnin'
Use the cup flame when the smoke went up
No pride, no pain, just a styrofoam cup
Everybody kept dancin' Rome was burnin'
The world just keeps on turnin'
No pride, no pain, just a styrofoam cup
Pop, pop, pa-da-da-da-da
