1
Roses blister on his skin
2
Fill him full of lies, withered posies crumbling in his hand
3
Destroy the lucky amulet, and damn us with the flies, read the last rites
4
"Blessed be the people" is a mockery, from clergy which approves the kiss of death
5
Ring-a-ring the children sing, the black plague bells are heralding
6
The funeral pyre, for beggar, priest and king
7
No, no, no - nobility's no sanctuary
8
Flee, flee, flee - the rat's bubonic flea
9
But the sourge is everywhere, England weeps in her despair
10
And in misty eyes a cure cannot be seen
11
Raging pox and pestilence are dripping with blood
12
The slavery black dog roams everywhere
13
Smite the one he bites, and drags the ones he misses down, the worst is yet to come
14
As 1665 turns into 1666, a dread lead to none before grips every man
15
As the prince of darkness sets aloose his wicked bag of tricks
16
"This plague and the impending conflagrations are signs from God
17
And thus we, the flagellants, shall inflict punishment
18
Upon our bodily flesh and other earthly manifestations
19
To atone for the sins of the world"
20
Satan has sent out a plot as cruel as it was grand,
21
To raze away the English capital
22
As the final began, he brought the flames to make his stand
23
And thirteen times the baker shook his hand
24
In the hellish heat of his retreat, the devil did a spy
25
The souls of London town were ripe for taking
26
From the depth of his disguise, through the black slits of his eyes
27
The fallen angel watched the city die
28
Fire, fire, fire - is burning London town
29
Try, try, try - to beat flames down
30
But the heat is too intense, and its thirst cannot be quenched
31
And London's burning to the ground
32
Ring-a-ring o'roses, a pocket full o'posies,
33
A-tishoo! A-tishoo! - we all fall down
