Black Death Lyrics – History teachers
Singer: History teachers
Title: Black Death
Uh huh, it’s the plague
Gonna kill you in a few days
A pandemic so severe
The Black Death Caused such horror and fear
And there ain’t no cure for that, girl
You’ll be dead in no time flat, girl
You’ll get acral necrosis
From the Yersinia Pestis
And it makes your tongue all black, girl
Gonna bury out in back, girl
Ooh, Fleas on rats
Ooh, Fleas on rats
Ooh, Fleas on rats
Ooh, Fleas on rats
Ooh, Fleas on rats
Ooh, Fleas on rats
Started in China, don’t know how
But the Mongols used Biological Warfare
At Kaffa hurled the Italians at Genoese
The Italians fled back to Sicily and in 1347
The Black Death said hello to Europe
In infected fleas
From port cities along trade roads
Buboes swelling in the nodes
And it spread real fast like that, girl
Better flee when you see a rat, girl
People livin for the now, bro
Like that Book by Boccaccio
Or you could be a flagellant, girl
Flog yourself ’til you repent, girl
Ooh, Fleas on rats
Ooh, Fleas on rats
Ooh, Fleas on rats
Ooh, Fleas on rats
Ooh, Fleas on rats
Ooh, Fleas on rats
5 kilometers a day and in 5 years
Killed two-thirds of the population
Some blamed the lepers or Jews, did they poison the wells?
It led to peasant revolts
, loss of faith
And some serious persecution
People carried out patches of herbs to protect them from the smell
Doctor’s didn’t know what caused it
Bolt your door if your family’s afflicted
Bodies in the carts, girl
Skeletons in the art, girl
But the decreased population
Lead to amelioration
Of the peasant folk, hey
They could ask for more pay
Ooh, Fleas on rats
Ooh, Fleas on rats
Ooh, Fleas on rats
Ooh, Fleas on rats
Ooh, Fleas on rats
Ooh, Fleas on rats
Let me hear you say
This plague is bubonic
B-U-B-O-N-I-C
This plague is bubonic
B-U-B-O-N-I-C
This plague is bubonic
B-U-B-O-N-I-C
This plague is bubonic
B-U-B-O-N-I-C
A pandemic so severe
The Black Death Caused such horror and fear
And there ain’t no cure for that, girl
You’ll be dead in no time flat, girl
You’ll get acral necrosis
From the Yersinia Pestis
And it makes your tongue all black, girl
Gonna bury out in back, girl
Ooh, Fleas on rats
Ooh, Fleas on rats
Ooh, Fleas on rats
Ooh, Fleas on rats
Ooh, Fleas on rats
Ooh, Fleas on rats
