The Little Ones
Oh, they've killed all the Little Ones While their faces still smiled With their guns and their fury They erased their young lives No longer to laugh No longer to be a child Oh, they've killed all the Little Ones While their faces still smiled |
|
Now they're burying the Little Ones And making their graves deep So the world cannot see That tonight we may sleep While they wash away the blood The mothers all weep Oh, they're burying the Little Ones And making their graves deep |
|
Yet where will the devils go When that day comes? When the angels drag them out To face The Little Ones |
|
Oh they killed all the Little Ones With their eyes open wide There was nothing to help them On the day that they died |
|
No bed to run under No cupboard to hide Oh they've killed all the Little Ones With their eyes open wide |
|
They'll be raising The Little Ones With no sin to atone In the light of high Heaven They will sit on tall thrones Where playtime lasts forever And God's Mercy never ends They'll be raising the Little Ones And they'll all be best friends They'll be raising the Little Ones And they'll all be best friends |
