The Herd - Burn Down the Parliament lyrics
[The Herd - Burn Down the Parliament lyrics]
Burn down a pub, we heat up a club
Get a punter feeling hot
Like they use dencorub
When we do what we love
Smell the smoke above
With a hot headed approach
Turning push to shove
Like a bushfire in scrub we ambush the dub
Set alight our rap books like a pencil stub
It's essential cuz, feel it heat ya blood
We be blazing on the mic
Like Nimbin blazes bud
Singe the ears keep it lit like gear
With no laws to fear, let it burn in here
Flush you out like a
Sniffer dog prowling near
Cos it's arson dear, get the crowd to cheer
The beats got an edge
Like dropping off cliffs
It's a major risk, just like nature is
Leave us with no choice when you make it fizz
Throwing fire on your lukewarm liquid disc
Let these words incite
Like Molotovs in flight
And set a panic in the
Public like a meteorite strike
Have you got a light? I've got a bomb tonight
And I will set it off when
I feel the mood is right
Firebugs delight, as the fuel ignites
And turn a civilised affair
Into construction site
When our raps are tight fire burning bright
We make the others look about
As hot as Michael Stipe
Burn down a parliament, we burn down a flag
Burn down a liar like we burn ounce bag
And the dutch oven cooks with
The smoke that was grabbed
So the fire flew fast and the
Flame licked the red rag
It's the place to be like South Park hell
Call your agency, better tell Ma Bell
But there's no place to sell and no vacancies
As the furnace starts to melt
I smell baked MCs but, it's pay per view so
Just close your eyes
While the conflagration spraypaints the sky
It's not humid
So why do these fellas need fluids
Man pass the joint, we're near boiling point
Was a quiet show, now an inferno
Fire start to make you
Disappear like Sheryl Kernot
In a riot below, watch the fire grow
Outta control like a pushy
When the tire blows
Let the word be known let a flag be flown
We take the mic in heavy fire
And make the stage our own
Til the fakes go home, place is set to blow
Cos this rhythms dynamite and the
Spark is the poem
You don't need no torch
With the background scorched
Cos the char will report
This is not just sport
Sport could never be bought
In this circumstance
Unlike ghetto street clothes or urban dance
Turn up your clock radios
To nightmare awakening
Crank the beat, enhance the de-stabling
The Herd confuse the labeling
Just here to make you think, we're near ya
We're here to take it in
Get a punter feeling hot
Like they use dencorub
When we do what we love
Smell the smoke above
With a hot headed approach
Turning push to shove
Like a bushfire in scrub we ambush the dub
Set alight our rap books like a pencil stub
It's essential cuz, feel it heat ya blood
We be blazing on the mic
Like Nimbin blazes bud
Singe the ears keep it lit like gear
With no laws to fear, let it burn in here
Flush you out like a

Cos it's arson dear, get the crowd to cheer
