Fahrenheit 451 — Hawkwind

In Lexington they're going to burn The Library of Congress for charity Round it's funeral pyre the flames will churn As night and winter's darkness spurn And threaten with their clarity

See the flames they're burning up Burning so bright, Fahrenheit Fahrenheit 451

Fahrenheit 451 The fun has just begun, Fahrenheit 451

Oh see the pages all catching fire See the building shimmering now It was like this when witches reared Against the stake, we stood and peered At such Aladin's caves of air Oh I wish you could have seen us there Spreading all around that funeral pyre Watching the flames burn higher and higher

Fahrenheit 451, Fahrenheit 451 The fun has just begun, Fahrenheit 451

Fahrenheit 451, Fahrenheit 451 The burning has just begun It's like a mushroom cloud on a sun Fahrenheit 451

The fire's fierce theatre draws herds of folk All willing to be hypnotised Anemones of flames and smoke Enchant us so we gladly choke

Fahrenheit 451, Fahrenheit 451 The fun has just begun, Fahrenheit 451
