Fire, fire, fire
It gets higher and higher
Bright red flame
It’s no game
The flames spread
So hot and red
The burnt smell
And a warning bell
The firefighter arrives
Ready to save lives
He takes out the hose
And sprays as high as the fire goes
The flame begins to die
Coming down from the sky
As it gets smaller
The people begin to holler
They cheer for this man
Who made a plan
To extinguish a fire
That could have been dire
