Does anyone have the lyrics for the version of Build A Fire which features on the Original White Room? Listened to it the other day, and remember the singer (Maxine?) chanting something about '... that trashed out car...' Cheers
It goes something like this: And don't forget, it's best to lie Than blowing your mind in some thrashed-out car And don't forget You died the death Of a hero With nothing left From: jarvmeister@gmail.com To: klf@mailman.xmission.com Date: Fri, 9 Dec 2011 21:47:54 +0000 Subject: [KLF] Build A Fire Does anyone have the lyrics for the version of Build A Fire which features on the Original White Room?

From the original Mancentral lyrics archive....
Title: Build A Fire [Original]/[Lenny Dee rx] Artist: The KLF Date: 1990 Trans: Jamm!n Driven all day and most of the night
From the Galloway hills, through the city lights Just followed the road, and not much was said Filled up with gas when the needle touched red
Sitting here, I watch the flames They climb higher and they take me away And sometimes I remember when... The memories - you can't trust them Build a fire, they're gonna build a fire (etc) Pulled up to rest, let the engine cool a while Opened the beans, gathered wood for the fire I hum this tune, to all the girls I've known Should I care about the chances I've blown? But don't forget there's less to life Than blowing your mind in some trashed out car And don't forget you died the death Of a hero with nothing left Build a fire (etc) When daylight breaks, we'll be down that road Rockman and me, with a lighter load We'll stop for lunch at some taco bar Lee Marvin on the jukebox - "Wandering Star" But don't forget there's less to life (etc) Build a fire (etc) ~~~ It's possible that "Should I care..." is "Shed a tear" Ben/Jamm!n
