Here Comes The Meter Man - Original - The Meters

Streets are invaded by thousands of killers

Total damnation’s near

You’d better run away for this is real

They’re gonna kill, you’re the next

Here comes the fire

Fear’s rising up and nobody knows where to hide

Death is the aim and nothing is left to do but crying

Here comes the fire the end is near

Here comes damnation’s law

You won’t survive you won’t run away

Feel the scent of death, there’s no other way

Presidents and leaders found at home

Bullets in their own heads

All the institutions burn in flames

They’re breaking all, shedding blood

The world is on fire

No one can tell who’s to blame for this bloody hell

Nobody knows if tomorrow the sun will shine again

Here comes the fire the end is near

Here comes damnation’s law

You won’t survive you won’t run away

Feel the scent of death, there’s no other way
