[original lyrics have been preserved for posterity]

ROUND AND ROUND
LET THE CITY TURN
PARTY IN THE HILLS
WE CAN PARTY IN THE BURBS
ROOF ON FIRE
LET IT BURN
CHAMPAGNE IN MY HAND
I'M NOT CONCERNED
LET IT BURN CHAM
LET IT BURN CHAM
BURN IN THE BURBS
NOT CONCERNED
BURN
LET IT BURN (BURN)
NOT CONCERNED (BURN)
NOT NOT NOT CONCERNED (BURN)
NOT NOT NOT CONCERNED (BURN)
BURN
ROUND AND ROUND (BURN)
ROUND AND ROUND (BURN)
ROUND AND ROUND (BURN BURN BURN)
LET IT BURN
CHAM
LET IT BURN
CHAM
LET IT BURN
CHAM

(Trainscriber's note: you like Huey Lewis and the News? Their early work was a little too new wave for my taste. But when Sports came out in '83, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humor. In '87, Huey released this; Fore!, their most accomplished album. I think their undisputed masterpiece is "Hip To Be Square". A song so catchy, most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should, because it's not just about the pleasures of conformity and the importance of trends. It's also a personal statement about the band itself.)

(SAVE YOUR LIFE) YOU DON'T CARE (SAVE YOUR LIFE) YOU DON'T CARE (SAVE YOUR LIFE) YOU DON'T CARE
