Music by Elton John
Lyrics by Bernie Taupin
Available on the album Tumbleweed Connection

You tell me there's an angel in your tree
Did he say he'd come to call on me
For things are getting desperate in our home
Living in the parish of the restless folks I know

Everybody now bring your family down to the riverside
Look to the east to see where the fat stock hide
Behind four walls of stone the rich man sleeps
It's time we put the flame torch to their keep


Burn down the mission
If we're gonna stay alive
Watch the black smoke fly to heaven
See the red flame light the sky


Burn down the mission

To be continued...
