Everything is so quiet
Deserted for years
The houses are tattered
There's trash in the streets
Somewhere there is a sound
The laugh of playing children
And there, among the ruins
Through a gate to their sacred hall
Stands a statue that is distorted
A green eyed Christ, nailed to a wall
Smilin' with an evil grin
His head starts to spin
So dark and ominous
The children laughs with him
The children of the corn
They are from all directions, see them come
Grinning youth, like evil little dolls
Children armed with sticks and stones
Bringing the infidels to his throne
In procession they carry them away
Laughing while they're marchÂing
In a common prayer
There, among the ruins
Through the gate to their sacred hall
Stands a statue that is distorted
A green eyed Christ, nailed to a wall
So dark and ominous
The children laughs with him
Let them be sacrificed
To him who reigns in the corn
The devil's prophet speaks in the night
I had a dream, and he hears the sobs and the sighs
They all feil down on their knees and prayed
For all the souls that he will take away
Let the doubts in your hearts be washed away
Because this sacrifice is the holy way
Let them be sacrifieced
Everything is so quiet deserted for years
The houses are tattered, there's trash in the streets
From allf' directions, see them come
Grinning youth, here they are
Children armed with sticks and stones
Bringing the inlidels to his throne
In procession they carry them away
Screaming
The youth will save the world
