    Or as the Tiger Lillies sang: „It makes me quiet sad, to watch young people dance,

    they could burn the discotheque, they’ve got every chance!

    Start a fire, start a fire, start a fire today!

    this song / attitude / philosohy etc make me sad, perhaps there was a fire when you were born, but it constantly hungers for more, and feeding it will get us nothing but burnt.

      I always thought the song was the opposite. It says „We didn’t start it it was always like this“ and continues to listen events during their lifetime that were not already always in motion.

      I always interpreted the song as saying „This is how it’s always been and we can’t change it is a lazy excuse for not trying to change anything.“
