Hey there!
My 5th video is finally here!
I'm definitely gettin' better....
My new videos aren't that crappy, I think....
However, I made this one with the song: "We didn't start the fire", by Billy Joel.
I got the pics from Google and the song from savemp3.net

I DO NOT OWN THE SONG OR THE PICS!!!
THEY BELONG ALL TO THEIR RESPECTIVE ARTISTS!!!

CHORUS
We didn't start the fire
It was 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

Rock and roller cola wars, I can't take it anymore

CHORUS

We didn't start the fire
But when we are gone
Will it still burn on, and on, and on, and on...

We didn't start the fire
It was 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......
