I hear a bell ringing like a funeral tune
I'm heading for the camels gonna be there soon

      Bbm
I was pinned in the corner, gonna fight my way out
There's some fool shouting: 'come on, run about!'
          Ebm
There's a voice in my head, saying: 'get out and fight'
          Bbm
There's a feeling in my heart, saying: 'this ain't right'
