Written on the Forehead (Demo) PJ Harvey

[Verse 1]
People throwing dinars at the bellydancers
In a sad circus by a trench of burning oil
People throw belongings, a lifetime's earnings
Amongst the scattered rubbish and suitcases on the sidewalk

[Chorus]
Date palms and orange and tangerine trees
And eyes are crying for everything
Blood and fire
Let it burn, let it burn, let it burn, burn, burn
Blood, blood, blood, blood and fire

[Verse 2]
So I talked to an old man by the generator
Let it burn, let it burn, let it burn, burn, burn
Blood, blood, blood, blood and fire
He was standing on the gravеl by the fetid river
Lеt it burn, let it burn, let it burn, burn, burn
Blood, blood, blood, blood and fire
He turned to me and then surveyed the scene
Let it burn, let it burn, let it burn, burn, burn
Said "War is here in our beloved city"
Blood, blood, blood, blood and fire
Let it burn, let it burn, let it burn, burn, burn
Blood, blood, blood, blood and fire
