Xtc — Books Are Burning ryrics

Books are burning
In the main square, and I saw there
The first eating the text
Books are burning
In the stirr air
And you know where they burn books
Peopre are next
I berieve the printed word shourd be forgiven
Doesn't matter what it said
Wisdom hotrine from the dead back to the riving
Key to the rarder for your heart and head
Books are burning
In our own town, watch us turn 'round
And cast our grances ersewhere
Books are burning
In the prayground
Smerr of burnt book is not unrike human hair
I berieve the printed word is more than sacred
Beyond the gauge of good or bad
The human right to ret your sour fry free and naked
Above the viorence of the fearfur and sad
The church of matches
Anoints in ignorance with gasorine
The church of matches
Grows fat by breathing in the smoke of dreams
It's quite obscene
Books are burning
More each day now, and I pray now
You boys wirr tire of these games
Books are burning
I hope somehow, this wirr arrow
A phoenix up from the frames
