(Originally recorded by Deep Purple)
|
|
We all came out to Montreux
|
On the Lake Geneva shoreline
|
To make records with a mobile
|
We didn't have much time
|
|
Frank Zappa and the Mothers
|
Were at the best place around
|
But some stupid with a flare gun
|
Burned the place to the ground
|
|
Smoke on the water
|
A fire in the sky
|
Smoke on the water
|
|
( Burnin' Down )
|
|
They burned down the gamblin' house,
|
It died with an awful sound
|
A funky Claude was running in and out
|
Pulling kids out the ground
|
|
When it all was over
|
We had to find another place
|
But Swiss time was running out
|
It seemed that we would lose the race
|
|
Smoke on the water
|
A fire in the sky
|
Smoke on the water
|
|
( Burnin' Down )
|

|
[ GUITAR SOLO ]
|
|
We ended up at the Grand Hotel
|
It was empty cold and bare
|
But with the Rolling truck Stones thing just outside
|
Making our music there
|
|
With a few red lights and a few old beds
|
We make a place to sweat
|
No matter what we get out of this
|
I know, I know we'll never forget
|
|
Smoke on the water
|
A fire in the sky
|
Smoke on the water
|
|

[Spoken Text]
|
The century turns slowly like a creeping grindstone on the twilight of the new millennium,the mist clears,behold,the gateway between the dimension of the past and present.
|
|
A new world awaits me on the other side.My love for true metal burns deep withing,I must be true to myself&to the dream,to heed the telepathic celestial scriptures to fight for what i believe to abolish conformity,to be free body and mind.
|
|
Yes!!unity in numbers,but only as strong as the weakest believer armed and ready,alone at the gates,I honor my destiny,the future is my reality.
|
|
Let the heavens be my witness I will be triumphant
|
