Last night
I saw a fire burning on
The palace lawn.
O'er the land,
The humble subjects watched in mixed
Emotion.
CHORUS:
Who is burnin'?
Who is burnin'?
Effigy.
Who is burnin'?
Who is burnin'?
Effigy.
Last night
I saw the fire spreadin' to
The palace door.
Silent majority
Weren't keepin' quiet
Anymore.
CHORUS
Last night
I saw the fire spreadin' to
The countryside.
In the mornin',
Few were left to watch
The ashes die.
CHORUS
Why?
Why?
Why?
Effigy.
Send "Effigy" Ringtone to your Cell 
I saw a fire burning on
The palace lawn.
O'er the land,
The humble subjects watched in mixed
Emotion.
CHORUS:
Who is burnin'?
Who is burnin'?
Effigy.
Who is burnin'?
Who is burnin'?
Effigy.
Last night
I saw the fire spreadin' to
The palace door.
Silent majority
Weren't keepin' quiet
Anymore.
CHORUS
Last night
I saw the fire spreadin' to
The countryside.
In the mornin',
Few were left to watch
The ashes die.
CHORUS
Why?
Why?
Why?
Effigy.
