Fall Out Boy Drops Updated Cover of Billy Joel's 'We Didn't Start the Fire' Referencing QAnon, Elon Musk and More

"Prince and the Queen die / World Trade, second plane / What else do I have to say?" sings the rock band on a new version of Joel's 1989 hit

In case anyone's forgotten the major cultural moments that've gone down since 1989, Fall Out Boy is here to remind you.

On Wednesday, the rock band released an updated cover of Billy Joel's "We Didn't Start the Fire" featuring references to QAnon, Elon Musk, Kanye West and Taylor Swift's feud, notable celebrity deaths, the Black Lives Matter movement and multiple popular Netflix series, among many other milestones that've occurred since Joel's classic was released.

"I thought about this song a lot when I was younger. All these important people and events — some that disappeared into the sands of time — others that changed the world forever," wrote the group on social media.

"So much has happened in the span of the last 34 years- we felt like a little system update might be fun," continued Fall Out Boy. "Hope you like our take on it…"

In contrast to Joel's original version, where the chorus ends with the lyric, "No, we didn't light it / But we tried to fight it," Fall Out Boy's take on the refrain ends with a more hopeful line about the future: "No, we didn't light it / But we're trying to fight it."

The cover arrives three months after the "Thnks fr th Mmrs" group released its latest album, So Much (for) Stardust. Fall Out Boy is currently in the midst of its So Much For (Tour) Dust, a string of North American concerts in support of the record.

Next month, the band will feature on Swift's song "Electric Touch (from the Vault)" off her next re-recorded album, Speak Now (Taylor's Version).
