|
The streets of Salem were a terrifying sight |
|
The witches dancing with the demons in the night |
|
Their evil minions watch the town as it's in bed |
|
They wish 'em dead, with 'em dead, wish 'em dead |
|
Old Rev. Parris knew that something was amiss |
|
He felt the evil from a spiritual abyss |
|
He knew the time had come to purify the town |
|
Hunt 'em down, hunt 'em down, hunt 'em down |
|
No time was wasted in assembling a squad |
|
This pitchfork army on a mission sent from God |
|
No witch was safe from Rev. Parris' brigade |
|
Their crusade, their crusade, their crusade |
|
"Call the magistrate and don't you wait another minute cuz this |
|
Town is going to hell we don't put away the sinnin' and.. |
|
We got no time to let a jury have their turn |
|
Let 'em burn, let 'em burn, let 'em burn" |
|
The damned were crammed into a carriage in the square |
|
Their faces battered and their bodies all were bare |
|
The Reverend brought 'em to an isolated hill |
|
Time to kill, time to kill, time to kill |
|
One by one their necks were snapped beneath the cedar tree |
|
The spirits vanished and the demons all were freed |
|
They dug a hole to hold their devilish remains |
|
They were slain, they were slain, they were slain |
|
The town was safe from all these wicked dissidents |
|
They could continue with their life of innocence |
|
Dispensing justice from a higher power.. |
|
They built a church atop the spirits and the bones |
|
Their moans were heard as they were laying down the stones |
|
The witches got revenge beneath that steeple bell |
|
They cast a spell, sent the Reverend to hell |
