| Lyrics:Ransford Music: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 |
