(ransford)   There's a story that I read about in books   About the bad times that people had   That's how he planned it   You can't do nowt about it   Too many people      The black plague came along and wiped out quite a few   The rats came with the graves, that's how we knew   That's how he planned it   You can't do nowt about it   Too many people      This ain't no story   No fairy tale   These things have happened once before   Ask yourself the question   When will it end   There ain't no foolin' death   So you just gotta sit and wait      Break      Too many people   Too many people      This ain't no story   No fairy tale   These things have happened once before   Ask yourself the question   When will it end   There ain't no foolin' death   So you just gotta sit and wait      A million people died   In great wars, that we know   They sacrificed their lives   Just goes to show   That's how he planned it   You can't do nowt about it         Too many people (there's too many people)   Too many people   Too many people   Too many people oh yeah
