Bonfire Of The Vanities
(Lyrics: Ritchy Nails)
Leave this world behind
and don't retrieve it
To take the kingdom by force
you must believe it
Lest the demons all
tear you to pieces
Like dogs to a corpse,
reluctance bleeds it
Will you cling to this life, having treasures on Earth
Or lay up treasures in Heaven of much higher worth?
Bring into subjection the enticements that lurk
To forsake life's pleasures and temptations at work
Renaissance excess, a reflection of man's
Self-interest and consumer demands
Those that protest indulgence and take a stand
Excommunicated by the Pope's command
Bonfire of the vanities
Bonfire of the vanities
Bonfire of the vanities
Bonfire of the vanities
All of your ego inflamed by acclaim
Status and symbol, the name of the game
You say that you're wealthy and have need of no thing
Failing to see you're blind, naked and lacking
Buy gold from inside the furnace refined
And give back to God what I thought rightfully mine
Clothe me in white garments to cover my shame
Anoint my eyes with salve
Renaissance excess, a reflection of man's
Self-interest and consumer demands
Those that protest indulgence and take a stand
Excommunicated by the pope's command
Bonfire of the vanities
Bonfire of the vanities
Bonfire of the vanities
Bonfire of the vanities
Bonfire of the vanities
Bonfire of the vanities
Bonfire of the vanities
Bonfire of the vanities
Bonfire of the vanities
Bonfire of the vanities
Bonfire of the vanities
Bonfire of the vanities
