[Verse 1]
You are terrified
By the smallest sound
Because you live your life
In such a sheltered world
[Chorus]
As do those who surround you
[Verse 2]
Well, I have seen you stung
By poisonous flies
And you suffer
Much too much from their bites
[Chorus]
There you sit in your comfort
Watching other people get caught by the storm
[Bridge]
Many a thing that used to be a secret
Has become so talked about
Not worth a second thought
There's different kinds of secrets now
Times change, it's not enough to say
It seemed a good idea a hundred years ago
[Refrain]
You think it's not your problem
It really doesn't matter at all
[Verse 3]
Every stone that's thrown
Must fall to the ground
But you don't give a thought
To where they might come down
[Chorus]
You are feeding the fire
Over which you'll be roasted
[Bridge]
Anywhere that they don't speak the same
In any place that they don't think the same
[Refrain]
You think it's not your problem, no, no
[Interlude]
(Doo-do-do-doo-do, doo-doo-doo)
(Doo-do-do-doo-do, doo-doo-doo)
(Doo-do-do-doo-do, doo-doo-doo)
(Doo-do-do-doo-do, doo-doo-doo)
(Doo-do-do-doo-do, doo-doo-doo)
(Doo-do-do-doo-do, doo-doo-doo)
(Doo-do-do-doo-do, doo-doo-doo)
(Doo-do-do-doo-do, doo-doo-doo)
[Refrain]
You think it's not your problem
It really doesn't matter at all
Ohh!
[Verse 4]
Maybe it's not your fate
To be a leader of men
But you just leave it all
To someone else and complain
[Chorus]
You could be so much stronger
But it really doesn't matter any longer
'Cause you're feeding the fire
Over which you'll be roasted
'Cause you're feeding the fire
Over which you'll be roasted
