Lyrics
There's a fire in the road where the flame is burnt
There's a fire on the road, and the flame has burned.
And all the automobiles are slowing down around the fire
Automobiles are slowing down around the fire.
There's a blacktop of people that are anxious inside
There's a crowd of people on the blacktop who are anxious.
They're kinda scared to be heated and no one lied to slip by
People are hesitant to be involved, fearing the heat, and nobody is trying to slip past.
Oh oh oh
(Refrain) Expressing emotions or a reaction, possibly a sense of urgency or tension.
The sidewalk cube are coming up from behind
Sidewalk cubes (pedestrians) are emerging from behind.
A 1981 stereo is drunk from the sound
A stereo from 1981 is loud and affecting the surroundings.
I see a cadillac approach and him jump to control it
Observing a Cadillac approaching, the driver seems determined and in control.
He's going away 'cause what he does is more important
The driver is leaving because what he does is considered more important.
Cars pass in cold blood
(Refrain) Cars pass in a detached and indifferent manner.
I hold back, it's hard to
Expressing restraint or holding back emotions while witnessing the scene.
I really want to block but realize it's a bad time for that
Desire to intervene but realizing it's not the right time for that action.
I tried to stay calm and watch the ambulance pass
Trying to remain calm and watch an ambulance pass by.
But as they call up their schedule, pull out of their lane
As the ambulance follows its schedule, there is an internal struggle to resist a strong urge.
I had a terrible urge but I tried control it
Feeling a strong urge but attempting to control it.
Don't get carried away, because what he does is not important
Advising not to get carried away because the ambulance's actions are not crucial.
Cars pass in cold blood
(Refrain) Cars continue to pass with a sense of indifference.
I hold back, it's hard to
Expressing the difficulty of holding back emotions while witnessing the events.
I really want to block but realize it's a bad time for that
Desire to intervene but recognizing it's not an appropriate time for such actions.
Oh oh oh
(Refrain) Expressing emotions or a reaction, possibly a sense of urgency or tension.
