[Verse 1] Fire they cried So evil must die And yields are good So men pull back hoods And smile The scapegoat blood spilled Spittled and grilled It crackled and spat And children grew fat On the meat Change must be earned [Chorus] Sacrificial bonfire Must burn Burn up the old Ring in the new Burn up the old Ring in the new [Verse 2] Assembled on high Silhouette against the sky The smoke prayed and pranced And sparks did their dance In the wind Shadows wore thin With less and less skin And the clothes that were draped Was all that told man From ape Change must be earned [Chorus] Sacrificial bonfire Must reign Reign over good Banish the bad Reign over good Banish the bad Oh

The only fault I can place with this song is that it should have been about 2 minutes longer.

Agreed. Of all the awful 12 inch remixes from the 90s, this one is severely missing in action. A wonderful song.

Presently mid March 2020 with COVID-19 taking over everything else, including the world economy, and this song came to mind. Like a long overdue earthquake our various faultlines were so ready to snap. This might be it. The start of it anyway... This virus could kill well over 100,000,000, which would be horrible. But the biggest damage is going to be to the economy and that hurts everyone. Sanders is toast, but here we are, already feeling the Bern. But what made me think of this song is, that's actually a good thing. Sacrificial bonfires *must* burn, and the kindling was already *so* dry. Hopefully something good will indeed spring from it all and fighting it *or* panicking is unrealistic anyway. Shit's gonna happen.
