- Chorus:
- We'll make a bonfire of
our troubles,
And we'll watch them blaze away,
And when they've all gone up in smoke clouds,
We'll never worry should they come another day,
And as the bonfire keeps on burning,
Happy days will be returning,
While the band keeps playing,
We'll let our troubles blaze away.
-
- First Bridge:
- Here we are, there's work
to do,
Don't let troubles trouble you.
Bring them along and we'll turn them up, Bring them along and
we'll burn them up.
- Gather round! Gather round!
This is the motto we've found.
-
- Second Bridge:
- Start and throw them right
into the fire, (Instrumental),
- Watch the flames going higher
and higher, (Instrumental),
Blazing away, Blazing away,
So come along, bring your worries round today.
