[Chorus]
Outside over there
Where the war was raging
Run little child, far from home
The Lord will take you with Him

[Verse 1]
As mushrooms, high as mountains
Came from Neptune's submarines
A little girl named Ida lived in a shack up by the sea
Her daddy was away at war
Her mother had lost her mind
So Ida in the harbor softly sang her lullabies
To hush her baby sister
And to calm her mother's shakes
And by the waves a'crashing
For her father she would wait
One evening Ida sang a song
Soft as May breeze blows
When a blinding flash of light came
Her eyes began to close
And devils in their hooded cloaks
Through the window climbed
They took her sister from her crib
And ran off in the night
When Ida looked to check the crib
When finally she arose
She saw a figure made of ice
Melting by the stove
