When the hell broke loose at midnight Time to die was near Golden tongues, disastrous fire Increasing human fear Sounds of prayers To God had faded There was no escape Burning bodies, crowded sundeck Told them it's too late
Death by fire, an awful question But they still could choose Burned to ashes So getting drunk Nothing left to lose

Part 4 - 5 o'clock tea
"Be home for tea" The queen told me When I was leaving To see the three down on their knees
