Talked to my friend again today forty days, forty nights, it rained all over the world to be exact sinners played, disobeyed the word coming down and that's a fact
Some people took it for a joke just can't understand they nailed our savior to the cross, but he told them all he'll rise again, rise again.
Talked to my friend again today this is what he had to say he said,
We're goin up in smoke, goin up in smoke and we ain't got no hope we're goin' up in smoke goin' up in smoke goin' up in smoke and we ain't got no hope cause we're goin' up in smoke
I talked to my friend again today don't be afraid by what i say, don't wait till judgement day, start to pray.
Stop the hate, killin' now we'll all have to go anyhow everybody's havin' tons of fun, but who's gonna take the blame?
Each day the sun gets close to earth, soon we'll all go up in burnin' flames burnin' flames.
Talked to my friend again today this is what he had to say, he said,
We're goin' up in smoke goin' up in smoke and we ain't got no hope cause we're goin' up in smoke goin' up in smoke
Hey~hey~ay we ain't got no hope cause we're goin up in smoke
Oh, i talked to my friend again today
Everybody's havin' tons of fun who's gonna take the blame?
Each day the sun gets close to earth, soon we'll all go up in burnin' flames burnin' flames
Talked to my friend again today this is what he had to say he said, we're goin up in smoke goin' up in smoke and we ain't got no hope cause we're goin' up in smoke
Goin' up in smoke
Goin' up in smoke
We ain't got no hope cause we're goin up in smoke goin' up in smoke goin' up in smoke
Goin, hey~eey~ay~ay~ooh goin' up in smoke goin' up in smoke we ain't got no hope goin' up in smoke goin' go~oo~oo~oin
Hey, sinners played, disobeyed, the word comin' down
That's why we're goin' up in smoke and we ain't got no hope ooh~no~no~no
Goin' ~ooh~hoo~ooh~hoo~yeah
Everybody's havin' tons of fun who wanna take the blame?
Burnin' flames, burnin' flames hey~aay~aay
Goin' up in smoke
Goin' up in smoke
Hey we ain't got no hope we ain't got no hope
Goin' up in smoke
Goin' up in smoke
