We Didn't Start the Fire II
Nov. 5th, 2019 06:41 pmA lot of people have wondered what would happen if someone made a version of We Didn't Start The Fire for the modern day. Since the original took place over 40 years (aka the amount of time Billy Joel had been alive) it only makes sense that we'd start where the original left off. So, let's start in 1990:
Vaclav Havel, Morris Worm, Mandela, Voyager
Exxon Valdez, Boris Yeltsin, 'Raq invades Kuwait
Sue the T-Rex, Leonard Bernstein, Sri Lanka, Dead John Heinz
Sacramento, Aung San Suu Kyi, Rostock battles hate

Bombay, Jurassic Park, 'Maker-Levy leaves a mark
O.J. Simpson, Pixar, Deep Blue is the chess star
Harry Potter, start of Google, terror at Columbine
We didn't start the fire
It's been always burning since the world's been turning
We didn't start the fire
No we didn't light it, but we tried to fight it
Napster downloads, Kosovo, Dreamcast, ExxonMobil
