[Verse 1]
The hospital's filled with coke-colored eyes
And nobody knows
The measles and mumps don't come close in size
Won't leave us alone
Created a packed out room in the sky
Where Heaven would go
The smell so grotesque it kills your insides
And downward you go

[Chorus]
All the days move fast, it seems
Rotting bodies from gangrene

No more coins to pay to live
All my lovers died from this
Nuclear war will take us next
Oh, the plague, it took my breath
All the days move fast, it seems
Rotting bodies from gangrene
Wash the air with rosemary
It's the plague, the century
No more coins to pay to live
All my lovers died from this
Nuclear war will take us next
Oh, the plague, it took my—
