[Verse 1]
Look away across the bay
Yankee gunboat come this way
Uncle Sam gonna save the day
Come tomorrow we all going to pay

[Chorus]
And it's burn baby burn
When am I going to get my turn?
Burn baby burn
When am I going to get my turn?

[Verse 2]
Something dead under the bed
Local diplomats hang their heads
Never mind what the government said
They're either lying or they've been misled

[Chorus]
And it's burn baby burn
When am I going to get my turn?
Burn baby burn
When am I going to get my turn?

[Verse 3]
Philippines was yesterday
Santiago and Greece today
How would they ever make the late news pay
If they didn't have the CIA?
[Chorus]
And it's burn baby burn
When am I going to get my turn?
Burn baby burn
When am I going to get my turn?

[Verse 4]
Here it comes, the loaded gun
"Must keep the Commies on the run"
You'd buy or bury everyone
For liberty and life and just plain fun

[Chorus]
And it's burn baby burn
When am I going to get my turn?
Burn baby burn
When am I going to get my turn?
Burn baby burn
When am I going to get my turn?
Burn baby burn
When am I going to get my turn?
Burn baby burn
When am I going to get my turn?
Burn baby burn
When am I going to get my turn?
