Around The Fire - Pere Ubu

Don’t gather by the river

Maybe no one will understand

Don’t race down to the sea

You don’t want to know

What’s been washed up on the sand

Don’t gather round the fire

Don’t run into the smoke

Don’t worry baby

It wasn’t anyone we even know

It’s not anywhere that we’d want to go

Don’t worry about the blood

It rains like that everyday

Don’t worry about them frogs

And mud and worms

I’ve seen it rain like that before

Stand by

Stand by

Stand by your man
