O Death

My name is death and I excel

I can open the gates to Heaven or Hell

Cast aside the flesh of the

Cast aside and set you free

Oh-oh Death, Oh-oh-oh Death,

Can't you spare me over till another year

I lock their jaws so they can't talk,

Stiffen their legs so they can't walk

Close their eyes so they can't see

The chill you feel, it comes from me

Oh Ma-ma mama come to my bed

Place a cold rag on my head

My eyes are aching and I cannot see

I feel the sheet pulling over me
