[Verse 1]
Talked to my friend again today
Forty days and forty nights
It rained all over the world
To be exact (To be exact)
Sinners played and disobeyed
The Word coming down
That's a fact (That's a fact)
[Pre-Chorus]
Some people take it for a joke
Just can't understand
They nailed our Savior to the cross
But He told them all
He would rise again, rise again
[Chorus]
I 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
[Verse 2]
I talked to my friend again today
Don't be afraid by what I say
Don't wait 'til Judgement Day
To start to pray
Stop the hate, killing now
We'll all have to go anyhow
[Pre-Chorus]
Everybody's having tons of fun
But who's gonna take the blame?
Each day the Sun gets close to Earth
So we'll all go up in burning flames
Burning flames
[Chorus]
I 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)
Goin' up in smoke
Hey, hey, we ain't got no hope
'Cause we're goin' up in smoke
[Bridge]
Oh, I talked to my friend today
[Instrumental Break]
[Pre-Chorus]
Everybody's having tons of fun
Who's gonna take the blame?
Each day the Sun gets close to Earth
So we'll all go up in burning flames
Burning flames
[Chorus]
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
Hey, 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
Said we're goin' up in smoke
Goin' up in smoke
Goin' up in smoke
We ain't got no hope
Goin' up in smoke
[Bridge]
Hey, hey, goin' up in smoke
Goin' up in smoke
We ain't got no hope
Goin' up in smoke
Goin', goin'
Yeah, sinners prayed, disobeyed
The Word coming down
That's why we're goin' up in smoke
And we ain't got no hope
Oh, no, no, no
Goin', ooh-hoo-hoo, yeah
Everybody's having tons of fun
Who wanna take the blame?
Burning flames
[Chorus]
Goin' up in smoke
Goin' up in smoke
We ain't got no hope
Goin' up in smoke
Goin' up in smoke
Goin' up in smoke
Hey, we ain't got no hope
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
We ain't got no hope
Goin' up in smoke
[Outro]
Hey, goin' up in smoke
Goin' up in smoke
And we ain't got no hope
