Caught in the chaos in the market square
I don't love what, I don't know why, but something's wrong down there
Their bodies twistin' and turnin' in a thousand ways
The eyes all rollin' turn and round into a remote gaze
Ah, look at that crowd!
Some are jumping up in the air - say "We're drowning in a flood of blood!"
Others passing down on their knees, seen a saviour coming out of the mud
Oh Mother! It's eating out my soul
Destroying law and order, I'm gonna lose control
What can I do to catch this plague, spread by sight alone
Just a glance and so a quiver, then they throb to the bone
Ah, look at them go!

Bunderschaft, you are going daft? Better seal off the palace grounds
"This is Moribund, the Burgermeister, I'm gonna keep this monster down,
Somebody sent the subversive element; going to track it out of town."
No-one will state what all this is about
But I will get out.
(I will get out. I will get out.)
This thing's outrageous, I assure you on the level
It's actually so contagious must be the study of the devil
You better go now, pick up the pipers, and assure them to play
Seems the music keeps them quiet, there is no other way.
Ah, close the doors!
"We've tried potions and waxen dolls, but none of us could obtain any cures,"
Mother please, is it but a disease, that has them breaking all my laws,
Check if you can disconnect the gist and I'll go after the cause
No-one will say what this is all about
But I will get out
I will.
