    Ullman shorts, Christmas show,

    Marge’s fling, Homer’s bro,

    Bart in well, Flanders fails,

    Whacking Snakes, Monorail,

    Mr. Plow, Homer space,

    Sideshow Bob steps on rakes,

    Lisa’s future, Selma’s hubby,

    Marge not proud, Homer chubby,

    Homer worries Bart is gay,

    Poochie, U2, NRA,

    Hippies, Vegas and Japan

    Octuplets and Bart’s boy band,

    Marge murmurs, Maude croaks,

    Lisa Buddhist, Homer tokes,

    Maggie blows Burns away,

    What else do I have to say?!

    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.

      “We didn’t light it but we tried to fight it”

      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.“

                “Soon I discovered that this rock thing was true. Jerry Lee Lewis was the devil. Jesus was an architect previous to his career as a prophet. All of a sudden, I found myself in love with the world. So there was only one thing that I could do, Was ding a ding dang my dang a long ling long”

    It wasn’t burning when your parents grew up but they get a whiney pop song… it wasn’t burning when you grew up while that whiney pop song replayed…

    If you’re sitting there now saying “we didnt start the fire” with a straight face you should jerk off into a mirror cause the world already suffered your bs so just turn inward.

    It’s a song from a generation that took the country from the civil rights movement to trump. They poured gas on whatever fire they’re complaining about.

    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!
