Zzzz OMG

Is there anyone that can give and confirm the lyrics for WoF?

Quote:
The World on Fire:

it's on fire, it's on fire, it's on fire, it's on fire, it's on fire, it's on fire, it's on fire, it's on fire, etc... (kinda easy so far)

The World on Fire, The World on Fire
and it's about to expire (WTF?)

too close too close to the wire....

Why are you dead?

three, two, one... zero

World so scratched, World so scratched, World so scratched.... Why are you dead(OMG hardest part)


pleasey please.... any help (for all non-english people or people not equiped withtwo nice ears)

and the female voice goes: ,, you're so special, you're so special, you're so special'' and ends with a sentence on wich keith sings on top of it.i don't know more.
good thread, also the lyrics to mescaline would be nice.in the song i hear : ,, celebrate the noise, wankers!'' but other people say it's ,,celebrate the noisemaker''( i think there was another post with the lyrics for this one)

Intro sample:
Worlds on fire, Worlds on fire, Worlds on fire, Worlds on fire, Worlds on fire, Worlds on fire, Worlds on fire, Worlds on fire.

Maxim:
The World's on Fire, World's on Fire, And It's About to Expire!
Too close, no, too close, no, too close to the wire!

Female sample:
If you're so special, your'e so special, why aren't you dead?

Keith: Why aren't you dead!

Is the intro sample from the same song as the female sample?

Also I don't hear 'no' after 'too close' :roll:

So, is it 'Why ARE you dead?' or 'Why AREN'T you dead?'

here you are ^_^

World's on fire, world's on fire, world's on fire, world's on fire, world's on fire, world's on fire, world's on fire, world's on fire
World's on fire, world's on fire, world's on fire, world's on fire, world's on fire, world's on fire, world's on fire, world's on fire

The world's on fire, the world's on fire, and it's too close to the wire!
World's on fire, world's on fire, world's on fire, world's on fire
The world's on fire, the world's on fire, and it's about to expire!
World's on fire, world's on fire, world's on fire, world's on fire
And it's about to expire!

Too close, you're too close to the wire!
Too close, you're too close to the wire!
Too close, you're too close to the wire!
Too close, you're too close to the wire!

World's on fire, world's on fire

If you're so special, you're so special, you're so special, why are you dead?

Three, two, one, zero...

The world's on fire, the world's on fire
The world's on fire, the world's on fire, and it's about to expire!

Too close, you're too close to the wire!
Too close, you're too close to the wire!
Too close, you're too close to the wire!
Too close, you're too close to the wire!

World's on fire, world's on fire

If you're so special, you're so special, you're so special, why are you dead?

World's on fire, world's on fire, world's on fire, world's on fire, world's on fire, world's on fire, world's on fire, world's on fire
World's on fire, world's on fire, world's on fire, world's on fire, world's on fire, world's on fire, world's on fire, world's on fire

Why are you dead?

Too close, you're too close to the wire!
Why are you dead?
Too close, you're too close to the wire!
Why are you dead?

Too close, you're too close to the wire!
Too close, you're too close to the wire!
Too close, you're too close to the wire!
Too close, you're too close to the wire!


note: there's actually "why ARE you dead" sample - all the lyrics portals are lying, just trust your ears and your mind (sentence "if you're so special, why AREN'T you're dead?" is senseless) =)

you don't seem to understand.
The lyric 'if you're so special, why aren't you dead'' points IMO to people who became more, remained, or even became popular after their dead.

it really is 'why aren't you dead'

the main word in your post is "IMO" :lol:

don't be a con, mate, be easier - what the fucking popular dead people? the meaning of the lyric is "if you're so cool, why are you dead?"

well i got the original song and i've spoke english since i could talk and it is Why Aren't You Dead.


Legends of all kinds are usually dead, jesus, james brown etc etc and she's basicly saying If your so special (like if you think your so special) then why aren't you dead like the rest of the special (Legendary) people

first of all , it's Why AREN'T you dead :lol: ffs
And yes, IMO , IMO , it points to dead people who are famous :lol:

So what the fuck is your problem , Mister cornholio.

Maybe you'd like to search for the lyrics of the ORIGINAL track Liam used to sample it ?

THE BREEDERS - I JUST WANNA GET ALONG

We were rich once
Before your head exploded
Imagine doing just what the Big Bang did
The whole world
Knew it was loaded
Wave bye-bye 'cause it ain't ever coming down now

I just wanna get along [2x]

I look up
The heads fly over
I see a boy I know: his hair's on fire
The whole world I discovered
If you're so special why aren't you dead

I just wanna get along [3x]

Wave bye-bye 'cause it ain't never coming down

I just wanna get along [3x]



Discussion cloooooooosed :lol:
I hate smartguys who just try to discuss with me lol
I know I'm fucking right yeah
