In the center of the city was a statue and her twinAnd together they watched over everythingOh, they saw me when I stumbled and they watched you help me standI'd swear Cecelia and her sister had it all plannedThen one morning I was walking, from my window to your doorWell I nearly hit the ground with what I sawCecelia had been broken, while her sister had been spared And the vandals had scattered the pieces everywhereAnd I knew it made me wonder what kind of twisted mindWould ever hurt her, so thoughtless and unkindBut a monster so cruel can't be that hard to findSo I started wearing warpaint and I gathered all my friendsFor Cecelia we'd be hunters 'till the endShe was built for a perfect picture, but she came to represent Though I guess I never understood exactly what it meantOh I know Cecelia and her sister were just statues made of stoneBut I still missed her and now her sister's all aloneNo that just won't do!So let's raid the vandal's homesBoys! Won't we boys?Oh come on boys!SongtexteCome on boys!So we ventured out at sunriseWith our torches and our spearsAnd our shotguns and our fearsAnd our carefully hidden tearsFor Cecelia, CeceliaNow I'm thinking of the moment When we can look them in the eyeAnd make them sorry, 'cause tonight they're gonna dieYeah, we'll shoot them up dead!Leave their bodies where they lieBoys, won't we boys?So now we're following the pieces of Cecelia to the doorEvery shattered limb repeatedly reminding us of what we're searching forAnd the sleepers have woken for now they have an aimYes they're quite aware of the cold hard fact that the city's loss could be their gainThey are dreaming of, the feeling of!A trophy in their arms, a hero's welcome, claiming women with their charmsOh I'm sorry if I hurt you, you know I swear I meant no harmOh babySo the trail, it keeps on turning as we wonder through the streetsI keep looking at, the pieces of Cecelia at my feetBut the strangest thing occurs to meWhen I stop to look aroundOh I'd swear we are returning to the center of the town!Yes we're back here, where we startedWhere Cecelia used to stand, but her sister looks differentPlease, tell me boys, if you can?Is that a smile on her face?Is that a hammer in her hand?Boys?Run, boys, run!Run, run, run, run!RUN!
