We Didn’t Start the Fire 2020 lyrics
by Billy Joel
Noriega, Panama, USSR starts to fall
Pee Wee Herman, Clarance Thomas and Anita Hill
LA Riots, Cholera, Oil spill by Exxon
Waco Texas, River Phoenix, Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell
Tonya Harding, OJ, Chechnya, Kurt Cobain
Oklahoma City, Mir, Windows 95 is here
Unibomber, Pokemon, Valujet, Tupac gone
Titanic and say goodbye to the People’s Princess Di
CHORUS
We didn't start the fire—It was always burning
Since the world's been turning
We didn't start the fire—No we didn't light it
But we tried to fight it
Steroids used by Mark McGwire, Michael Jordan does retire
Monica, Bill’s Cigar, and the Blue Dress
JFK Junior, Columbine, Kashmir
Pеople say Y2K will be a big mess
Elian is handlеd bad, counting all the hanging chads
9/11, Taliban, Al Queda, Afghanistan
Black Holes, Anthrax, Daniel Pearl, Iraq
WMD, snipers out in DC
CHORUS
Schwarzenegger’s governor, Mr Rogers, John Ritter
Dan Rather, Gaza Strip, seeing Janet Jackson’s tit
Paris riots, London bombs, Hurricane Katrina storms
Steve Irwin, Abu Ghraib, Pluto gets a downgrade
Oh, oh, oh …
Scooter Libby, Agent Plame, Argentina climate change
JP Morgan Chase, China shaken by a quake
Hamas hits Israel again, bail outs by the government
Heath Ledger, Bernie Mac, George Carlin heart attack
CHORUS
Fort Hood, Air France, Michael Jackson’s last dance
Earthquakes, wildfires, trapped Chilean miners
Moscow train attacks, BP oil, Goldman Sachs
Solar Flares, Arab Spring, Occupy Wall Street
Army rule in Cairo, Japanese 9.0
Denver shooter, Sandy Hook, Benghazi’s a clusterf—k
CHORUS
Bombing Boston Marathon, Zimmerman and Trayvon
Ferguson, ISIS, Boko Haram, virus
BLM, Paris bomb, Amtrak, Brady, Tom
Brexit, Brussels, Michigan, Russia, Paris hit again
Harvey Weinstein, NFL, Vegas shooting, Charlottesville
California, Kavanaugh, Facebook data, Florida
Jussie, Jeffrey, Notre Dame, cheating college using fame
2020 takes to long, this year needs a separate song!
We didn't start the fire
It was always burning
Since the world's been turning
We didn't start the fire
But when we are gone
Will it still burn on, and on, and on, and on
We didn't start the fire
It was always burning
Since the world's been turning
We didn't start the fire
No we didn't light it
But we tried to fight it
We didn't start the fire
It was always burning
Since the world's been turning
We didn't start the fire
No we didn't light it
But we tried to fight it
