Fleas On Rats letra

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

Oh ooh, fleas on rats, fleas on rats
Oh ooh, fleas on rats, fleas on rats
Oh ooh, fleas on rats, fleas on rats
Oh ooh, fleas on rats, fleas on rats

Started in china, don't know how
But the mongols used biological warfare
At kaffa hurled the italians at geonesse

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
Oh you could be a flagellant, girl
Flog yourself till your repent, girl

Oh ooh, fleas on rats, fleas on rats
Oh ooh, fleas on rats, fleas on rats
Oh ooh, fleas on rats, fleas on rats
Oh ooh, fleas on rats, 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 cart girll
Skeletons in the art girl
But the decreased population
Led to amelioration
Of the peasant folk, hey
They could ask for more pay

Oh ooh, fleas on rats, fleas on rats
Oh ooh, fleas on rats, fleas on rats
Oh ooh, fleas on rats, fleas on rats
Oh ooh, fleas on rats, fleas on rats, (let me hear you say)

This plague is bubonic
B-you-b-o-n-I-c
This plague is bubonic
B-you-b-o-n-I-c
This plague is bubonic
B-you-b-o-n-I-c
This plague is bubonic
B-you-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

Oh ooh, fleas on rats, fleas on rats
Oh ooh, fleas on rats, fleas on rats
Oh ooh, fleas on rats, fleas on rats
Oh ooh, fleas on rats, fleas on rats
