lyrics

There was a plague that came to town
It claimed all those who danced around
For days they did not rest
I broke my neck, but I must persist
Beat me to death with my own legs

I see a child in a mask
Hands raised, hoping to forget
Black Spider Bone called on the telephone
Hair is raised and it's not my own
The ones you love smile when you're gone

I saw a man with seashells on his back
He said it keeps him safe from his past
His eyes were bleak but known to me
He seem fit to join my cavalry
His role will be great in wars to come

So they crowned me king and I took may aim
Made a dance, so sad it will kill them all

There was a plague that came to town
It claimed all those who danced around
For days they did not rest
I broke my neck but I must persist
Beat me to death with my own legs
