Somebody's shouting up at a mountain
Only my own words return
Nobody's up there, it's a deception

When will I ever learn

I'm alone here

With emptiness eagles and snow

And whispering pictures of home
Riff
Verse 2
Wondering blindly how can they find me
Maybe they don't even know
My body is shaking, anticipating
The call of the black footed crow
I'm alone here
With emptiness, eagles and snow
Unfriendliness chilling my body
And taunting with pictures of home
Guitar solo: Bm
Verse 3
Here in this prison of my own making
Year after day I have grown
Into a hero but there's no worship
Where have they hidden my thrown
I'm alone here
With emptiness, eagles and snow
Unfriendliness chilling my body
And screaming out pictures of home

On the Lake Geneva shoreline
To make records with a mobile

Frank Zappa and the Mothers

Were at the best place around
But some stupid with a flare gun

Burned the place to the ground

Smoke on the water, a fire in the sky

Smoke on the water
Riff (2 X)

They burned down the gambling house
It died with an awful sound
Funky Claude was running in and out
Pulling kids out of ground
When it all was over
We had to find another place
Swiss time was running on
It seemed that we would lose the race
Smoke on the water, a fire in the sky
Smoke on the water
Riff (2 X)
Guitar solo
Riff (2 X)
Gm (Verse 3)
We ended up at the Grand Hotel
It was empty, cold and bare
But with the Rolling truck Stones thing just outside
Making our music there
With a few red lights, a few old beds
We made a place to sweat
No matter what we get out of this
I know, I know we'll never forget
