Lyrics

The world's on fire and you glow

The world is in chaos, and you stand out, shining or thriving.

Making the ashes dance like snow

Your actions cause the destruction to appear beautiful, like dancing snow from the ashes.

It leaves a taste to be desired

The situation is not as expected or satisfying, leaving a desire for something more.

Just a step below the reptiles in the mire

You are only slightly better than the reptiles in the swamp, suggesting a low moral standing.

It's a God damn travesty

The situation is a terrible tragedy or disaster.

And Darlin save your sympathies

Addressing someone affectionately, advising them to save their sympathy.

And your pleas "don't forget about me's"

Rejecting pleas not to be forgotten, implying a sense of betrayal.

We know you've blown it all to hell

Acknowledging that everything has been ruined or destroyed.

There's a story to tell

There's a narrative or story to share about the destruction.

It's all the cloud wants and needs

Referring to an unidentified "cloud" that has specific wants and needs.

Oh Please please please just send in the clown

An urgent plea to bring in someone, possibly a clown, to deal with the situation.

Nevermind behind the scenes

Disregarding what happens behind the scenes, focusing on the surface.

Paint over the facade oh how serene

Covering up or ignoring the superficial aspects to create a false sense of tranquility.

You're just doing your part

Suggesting that individuals are playing their role in the chaos.

We'll just call it art

Labeling the chaotic situation as art, possibly commenting on the subjective nature of chaos.

Tuning in like trash tv

Observing the chaos unfold like watching low-quality television.

It's a God damn travesty

Reiterating the tragic nature of the situation.

And Darlin save your sympathies

Repeating the plea to save sympathy, highlighting the emotional toll.

And your pleas "don't forget about me's"

Rejecting pleas not to be forgotten, again emphasizing betrayal.

We know you've blown it all to hell

Acknowledging the irreversible destruction and the need for storytelling.

There's a story to tell

There's a narrative or story to share about the destruction, reinforcing the idea.

It's all the cloud wants and needs

Referring again to the mysterious "cloud" and its desires.

Oh Please please please just send in the clown

Repeating the urgent plea to bring in someone, possibly a clown, to address the chaos.

Just send in the clown

Reiterating the need to bring in a clown, perhaps as a symbol of humor or absurdity.

Clown

A singular emphasis on the clown, reinforcing the call for an unconventional solution.

Just send in the clown

A final plea to bring in the clown, emphasizing the urgency and need for a unique approach.
