In the violent October 1347
A ship from far Asia did sail into port
In the cargo were rats all covered with fleas
Come to old Europe to spread their disease

Pneumonic bubonic and oh worst of all
Septicemic plague would kill in an hour

They hid in their houses put signs on their doors
Lord have mercy on us but God let em fall
Whole villages vanished beneath Death's scythe
The Reaper did harvest lost spirits did fly

Pneumonic bubonic and oh worst of all
Septicemic plague would kill in an hour

One third of the world in two years was gone
Foxes and crows did nest in their towers
The churches stood empty the farms all untended
In streets piled bodies all black and distended

Pneumonic bubonic and oh worst of all
Septicemic plague would kill in an hour

The moans of the living and dying combined
A cacophonous nightmare that echoes through time
It couldn't happen again we pretend
God loves us more now than he did back then
It couldn't happen again not like then
Just close your eyes dear we've got to pretend
