King Diamond - Cross Of Baron Samedi

(Diamond/Diamond)

Tuesday evening

One single hour, is like a working day
Father Malone is getting tired
Darkness...has come again
The Demons seem to be resting
Sarah is looking just like Hell
There ain`t much left of her to save now

Meanwhile in Salem`s quarters
There`s shadow that moves
Into a room full of secrets of life
Into a room only few have survived
There is a cross upon the wall
The cross of Baron Samedi
The shadow is taking the cross away
The shadow is Lula, the girl that no one ever sees

I see her shadow with that cross mine
I see her shadow slipping into the night
The cross of Baron Samedi will set us free
The cross of Baron Samedi, just wait and see

(Solo: Herb)

The cross of Baron Samedi is full of nails
The cross of Baron Samedi could split your head
Take it to Sarah... Take it to Sarah... SarahDarkness..she`s up again
Sarah is standing in front of Father Malone
Sleeping..the Father`s on a chair
Sarah is saying: `Father, I`m about to sin`

Then one to the Father`s head
The cross is coming down so hard
Screaming, bleeding, Malone goes down
Again and...again and...his blood is all around

(Solo: Andy)

In comes Grandpa: `Stop it Sarah stop`
I don`t know why, but Sarah dropped the cross
Two hours later everyone was here
Police and ambulance, wiping up the tears

(Solo: Herb)
