Keep the Fire On Lyrics

I know you all my life, haven't changed at all

For you I worked hard, good times I recall

Long sunny days were spent, with sunburned backs bent

Turning, footing, stacking on the hill

No talk of virus, war or environment

Next day was our neighbour's turn

What have we done wrong, to keep the fire on

Cold and hunger's not much fun

When gas and light go out, we can even cook a bite

And poach a wild salmon on the grill

No retrofit for me, I'm getting on you see

And anyway, can't afford the fee

When anger and fear, causes worry for me

I'll just revert to my plan B

What have we done wrong, to keep the fire on

Cold and hunger's not much fun

When gas and light go out, we can even cook a bite

And poach a wild salmon on the grill

And keep your fracking gas, it's bad for my health

And harmful, for the environment too

I'll stay the way I am, for as long as I can

Soaking up your aromatic scent

What have we done wrong, to keep the fire on

Cold and hunger's not much fun

When gas and light go out, we can even cook a bite

And poach a wild salmon on the grill

When winter comes around, and Santa comes to town

And finds all the chimneys tumbled down

For him I'll sing my song, to those long gone

Who worked so hard to keep the fire on

What have we done wrong, to keep the fire on

Cold and hunger's not much fun

When gas and light go out, we can even cook a bite

And poach a wild salmon on the grill
