The lyrics to "Firestarter" by The Prodigy are aggressive and confrontational, with a tone of rebellion and a sense of danger. The song is written from the perspective of someone who is intentionally causing chaos and destruction. The opening lines, "I'm the trouble starter, fuckin' instigator" set the tone for the song, with the singer boasting about their role as a firestarter and provocateur. They describe themselves as a "fear addicted danger illustrated," suggesting that they thrive on causing fear and creating dangerous situations.
The second verse takes a more personal tone, with the singer describing themselves as "the bitch you hated, filth infatuated." They revel in the fact that they are despised and reviled by others, and seem to take pleasure in their own depravity. They are "the pain you tasted, fell intoxicated," suggesting that their destructive tendencies are addictive and all-consuming.
The chorus repeats the refrain "I'm a firestarter, twisted firestarter," emphasizing the singer's role as an arsonist and provocateur. The final lines of the song, with the repeated "starter" chants, drive home the sense of chaos and destruction that the singer embodies.

My Dad always joked about how he wanted this played at his funeral. Then in 2018 he took his own life, only a few months before Keith did the same thing. Me and my brother wanted it played at the cremation service but we got overruled (I guess it may not have been to everyone's taste!). Shame as it would have been a great way to honour his sense of humour. At least we got to play it at the wake.

Funny how the people that attended the funeral process had the last word about the music.. may ur dad Rest in Peace bro! He is in a better place i can assure u! 🙏❤️
@ssjwes
Well your Dad didn't ask for it to be played(seriously) so I can see why you'd back down. If he really wanted it, I hope you would've told everyone to f off and if the funeral home didn't allow it, I'd blare it on the radio after everything was over.
I lost my Dad last year(illness) in July, 5 days after my birthday. He tried to take his own life(with my shotgun) months before and I stopped him. My mother did the same(but she shot herself .22 rifle, survived, died later of illness) when I was a kid. They're both in a better place. This world is doo doo. Glad I don't have kids. I'd go nuts worrying.
edit for clarity?
