this world is on fire - parody

Hello everyone!

Recently, in school, we have been learning about global warming. Our science teacher, in her slideshow, included an image of the world "on fire":

That isn't the exact picture she used, but it looks like it.

Someone exclaimed, "The world is on fire!"

This brought to mind the carol commonly heard in shopping centres when I was in kindergarten: "This girl is on fire, she's walking on fire!"

So, I was inspired to write a parody of it. I do not know how to sing the song, but I copied the lyrics from some website. Then, I edited it.

Here is the final version:

World on Fire by Andrew Lee

[Verse 1]

It's just a world, and it's on fire

Hotter than ever imagined, lonely like a highway

We're living in a world, and it's on fire

Feeling the catastrophe, but we know we can do nothing

[Brigde]

Oh, there's so much heat on the ground

And we're burning it down

Oh, we got our head in the clouds

And it's not backing down

[Hook]

This world is on fire

This world is on fire

It's gonna catch fire

This world is on fire

[Verse 2]

Looks like a world, but it's a flame

So bright, it can burn your eyes

Better look the other way

You can try but you'll never forget the name

We're living in a world

Hottest of the hottest worlds say

[Bridge 2]

Oh, we got our feet on the ground

And we're burning it down

Oh, got our head in the clouds

And we're not coming down

[Hook]

This world is on fire

This world is on fire

It's gonna catch fire

This world is on fire

[Verse 3]

Everybody stands, as it goes by

Cause they can see the flame that's in its eyes

Watch it when it's lighting up the night

Nobody knows that it's a lonely world

Oh, it's a lonely world

But it's gon' let it burn, baby, burn, baby

[Hook]

This world is on fire

This world is on fire

It's gonna catch fire

This world is on fire

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh...

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh...

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh...

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh...

It's just a world, and it's on fire
