lyrics

House On Fire

House on fire
World fucked up
But we keep on buying
We ain’t got enough

This house is on fire
This world is fucked up
But we keep on buying
We ain‘t got enough

We know it we feel it
We see it each day
You know it you see it
Keep looking away
Hey! Hey!

We buy it in plastic
We throw it away
We’ll be six feet under
The plastic will stay

There will be more plastic
Than fish in the sea
But we keep on buying
Till we can’t breathe
We can’t breathe

House on fire
World fucked up
But we keep on buying
We ain’t got enough

I can see people in the grocery store
Buying food in plastic packaging
Buying water in a plastic flask
Carry it home in a plastic bag

I can see loads of that plastic waste
In painfully perishing animals
Including sea birds, dolphins and whales
Leaving nothing but plastic after their decays

House on fire
World fucked up
But we keep on buying
We ain’t got enough

about

Anthony's Garden Munich, Germany

Singer-songwriter Joerg Mair counts on the wisdom of a pure folk-song reduced to its essentials. Dealing with love and hate, personal and global crisis, the lyrics are the driving force of every song.

His Trio „Anthony’s Garden“ (Wolfgang Peyerl - drums, Markus Angeli - upright bass) runs in the folk-tradition of Stephen Stills, José González, Bon Iver, Nick Drake or Ry Cooder.
