Death comes sweeping through the hallway 
Like a lady’s dress 
Death comes driving down the highway 
In it’s sunday best 

A fire of unknown origin 
Took my baby away 
A fire of unknown origin 
Took my baby away 

Swept her up and off my wavelength 
Swallowed her up 
Like the ocean in a fire 
So thick and grey 

A fire of unknown origin 
Took my baby away 
A fire of unknown origin 
Took my baby away 

Death comes driving 
I can’t do nothing 
Death goes 
There must be something 
There must be something 
That remains 
There must be something 
There must be something 

A fire of unknown origin 
Took my baby away 
A fire of unknown origin 
Took my baby 
Took my baby away
