Last night I had a vision

I saw fire in the sky

And last night. I had a vision

I saw men, that once had died

There were seven angels

You know what they said, that my time had come

Yes, those seven angels

You know they said, that the good people had won

The first angel, the very first angel, you know, he looked at me and he said to me

He told me that he put the fire in the sky

The second angel, he started to cry

And he said that all the evil men must die

The third angel, said that he bought a plague

That for three months would torment man

And he said that man would pray to die

But that death would be

Just out of the reach of his hand

And the fourth angel, he had a great big urn

And when he poured all the waters of the earth turned to blood

And he said, that man didn't learn

Man didn't learn from the great big flood

Last night I had a vision

I saw fire in the sky

And last night. I had a vision

I saw men, that once had died

The fifth and six angel

Said they'd come to help man

But man being the fool he is

Turned his back and he ran

Oh lord...

All of the good people have

My time has come

The seventh angel he raised his hand

And not a word, not a word did he say

And all the dead walking throughout the land

Whispering, Whispering, it was judgment day

Last night I had a vision

I saw fire in the sky

And last night. I had a vision

I saw men, that once had died

Oh no

My time has come
