The forward-lyrics should be noted: a choral group sings the title of the song throughout.
"Fire on High" I've always thought to be a foreboding of judgement day, or as "time is not (reversible)" suggests, we're rushing headlong towards a techological doom. A warning to turn back. (though on an LP if you didn't stop spinning it backwards the needle might fall off the record).
Also fwiw, I remember CBS Football using the chorus as theme music in the 70's. Great stuff.
