Song Details
Artist(s)
  • Siouxie and the Banshees
  • Album(s)
  • Peepshow (buy)
  • A crumpled future in your fist
    The killing streak ascends sun kissed
    And the firestarter from within
    Pokes out from fever blistered grin
    King Salamander that's his name
    A desert maker that's his aim
    The benign cremator, branding iron in his hand
    Eager and willing to torch the land

    All fire and brimstone
    This jack-o-lantern
    He likes to watch the buildings burn

    His ardour smoulders, phosphorous flies
    He radiates with urgence to hypnotise
    Stoke the furnace, feed his need
    This thirst for fire is all he seeks
    He's the blazing rubber making tracks
    The blue touch paper at your back

    All fire and brimstone
    This salamander king
    He basks while all around him burns `Giddy-up, burn-up, not fade away'
    These words ignite and pave his way
    `Giddy-up, burn-up, stoke it up and turn it up'
    He sings these words in fervid frame

    All fire and brimstone
    This jack-o-lantern
    He likes to watch the pyres burn

    Jack be nimble, Jack be quick
    Jack jump over the candlestick
