While Rome burns
We fiddle faddle

We fiddle and faddle
While Rome burns

In the fire
The kernals wait

The kernals wait
To begin to pop

First one here
Then one there

Then another
And another

And another
In quick succession

Pop, pop, pop
Pop, pop, pop

Soon a staccato
Of corn goes a popin'

The fire keeps risin'
All hell is a popin'

While we fiddle and faddle
Rome keeps a burnin'

And we all start to popin'
Popin' and fiddlin' and faddlin'

While Rome burns
