    Smoke! Smoke! Sign of the devil! Sign of the devil!

    City on fire!

    Witch! Witch! Smell it, sir! An evil smell!

    Every night at the vespers bell —

    Smoke that comes from the mouth of h**l —

    City on fire! City on fire!

    Mischief! Mischief! Mischief...

    There! There! Somebody, somebody look up there!

    Didn't I tell you? Smell that air! City on fire!

    Quick, sir! Run and tell!

    Warn 'em all of the witch's spell!

    There it is, there it is, the unholy smell!

    Tell it to the Beadle and the police as well!

    Tell 'em! Tell 'em! Help! Fiend!

    City on fire! City on fire!

    Mischief! Mischief! Mischief...Fiend . . .

    Alms…alms...for a miserable woman…

    Here's a scan from the score. You sure you don't need more than 16 bars?
