As the night falls he roams the land In his search for lives to end with matches in his hand He wets the cattle with gasoline If he can then why not be obscene? The stench of burned flesh in the air Seven hundred cows in despair Chorus: These days – cows ablaze These days – cows ablaze These days – cows ablaze These days – cows ablaze His violent behaviour drives the farmers insane But if they try to stop him They will die in his flames Nothing goes against him but a rainy day He can hear a voice say You must obey Chorus As the morning comes he heads back home To refill with gasoline and off he goes So as the night falls he roams the land In his search for lives to end With matches in his hand Chorus
