Last night
   I saw a fire burning on
   The palace lawn.
   O'er the land
   The humble subjects watched in mixed
   Emotion.
   CHORUS:
   Who is burnin'?
   Who is burnin'?
   Effigy.
   Who is burnin'?
   Who is burnin'?
   Effigy.
   Last night
   I saw the fire spreadin' to
   The palace door.
   Silent majority
   Weren't keepin' quiet
   Anymore.
   CHORUS
   Last night
   I saw the fire spreadin' to
   The country side.
   In the mornin'
   Few were left to watch
   The ashes die.
   CHORUS
   Why?
   Why?
   Why?
   Effigy.
