Here Comes All The People Lyrics
(We should start a fire)
Numbers falling into piles
Watching all the ones drip
Into the divide
All the even numbers falling into piles
Watching all the ones drip
Into the divide
What's the color? What's the time?
What's the number? What'd you find?
Every yellow object sorted into piles
Do you know what's best for me?
You do when we see
The moon eclipse the morning sun
You have a life to see
A way to be known
Fire, you should start a fire
We should start a fire
We should start a fire
You should start it first
Life possession could be fun
Counting victims one by one
Life possession could be fun
Counting victims one by one
We can count them one through eight
Skipping two, four, six and ten
Lose your conscience or your mind
Though we're not afraid to die
Make our fortune sailing seas
Be the breath blowing the breeze
Life possession could be fun
Counting victims one by one
Counting victims one by one
Numbers falling into piles
Watching all the ones drip
Into the divide
Watching all the ones drip
Into the divide
What's the number? What'd you find?
Every yellow object sorted into piles
Do you know what's best for me?
You do when we see
The moon eclipse the morning sun
You have a life to see
A way to be known
We should start a fire
We should start a fire
You should start it first
Counting victims one by one
Life possession could be fun
Counting victims one by one
We can count them one through eight
Skipping two, four, six and ten
Lose your conscience or your mind
Though we're not afraid to die
Make our fortune sailing seas
Be the breath blowing the breeze
Life possession could be fun
Counting victims one by one
Counting victims one by one

It's seems like the narrator is a low level worker at a large business who has to deal with a lot of mundane work, and his dealing with the voices inside his head telling him to burn it down. The voices begin off to the side of the verses and then the narrator begins to say them.
