Dust

The ducks, they dance and the garden is burning

The people, they prance and the garden is burning

The fish, they feast and the garden is burning

Nobody knows the garden is burning

The baker, he bakes and the city is burning

The sick people shake and the city is burning

The lovers, they love and the city is burning

Nobody knows the city is burning

The children, they play and the field is burning

The horses, they neigh and the field is burning

The farmer, he plows and the field is burning

Nobody knows the field is burning

Burning and burning, the flames go higher

Higher and Higher, look at the fire

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust

Nobody knows the world is burning

F**k yea!
I mean, I love this :)

Good rhythm, alliteration, so forth.

The lines that didn't fit in as great was "The fish, they laugh and the garden is burning."
"Laugh" seems misplaced. According to the rest of the stanza, the word should start with a "f". Just a thought.
