Metal Church - Little Boy Lyrics
Mama, I'm crying, did the silver angel warn the earth
From a blue sky falling?
Father, I'm frightened, what will happen if it falls again?
Will you be there to shelter me?
The little dot that falls, a little boy, that's all
Morning comes, I walk to school
But something's in the air
Things have changed, there's war at hand
But I'm too young to care
My home is a paradise, a jewel in the east
My family, they have seen the battles
They're praying for relief
Soon to be over, my father he said, victory is ours son
We will mourn all of our dead
I wonder what happens when a world is at war
In order to win, does someone else keep the score?
I think of my future on this beautiful day
How could I have known that the end's on its way?
The sky is quiet
Just one single plane
To bring destruction
Has mankind gone insane?
What happened to the land?
Metal fused with stone
Nothing remains, nothing lives
Burned through the bone
The sun touched the earth somehow, life melts away
One city barren wasteland, a split-second blaze
The heat turned the men to shadows, the sand into glass
A master stroke of evil in a blinding flash
The sea of dead and dying increases by the day
For years to come we pay the price of science gone astray

Metal Church Little Boy Comments
HANDS DOWN THERE MOST UNDERRATED ALBUM!! TO ME THEM AT THERE BEST!!!!!
Agreed 100%
Sleeping Village
You hit it on the spot it does sound like Sleeping Village in the beginning
This song has the "epic " metal feel to it that makes Metal Church so great , great riffs , song writing and powerful !!! excellent !!!
Killer riff ! Pure heavy metal classic riffs !! His voice ! Evil and magestic voice ! Metal Church = heavy metal maximum expression
The only church I’ll ever pray for. \m/
amazing band...horrible album cover...lol
Metal Church, musically amazing !!!!
killer composition on this one...
Compared to the other CD's Metal Church put out, I wasn't too keen on most of the first six songs on Hanging In The Balance... Then I got to this song, and now I know I gotta buy this!
@gibbut1 Uhhhhh... I'm pretty sure Blessing In Disguise and The Human Factor were better. (Along with the CD's in which David Wayne was the lead singer.)
@gibbut1 To each their own. You got your tastes and I have mine, but just going by the fact you like Metal Church, you're awesome with me!
I love metal!!!
No More Hiroshima Nagasaki No More War!
This song is about the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima. The lyrics are very profound!
Nice call on the Joan Jett backing vocals. MC had something for every metal head- the pounding melodic riffs and, for the bookworms, a veritable plethora of storytelling genius in the lyrics. If you like Mike Howe on vocals, relish this and the other tunes on this offering. It's the last with him singing. Live long and prosper, Mike- wherever you may be, whatever you may do. Shit... LIVE LONG, METAL CHURCH!!!!
He's Baaaack!!!!!
i hear this song for first time and it's great!!
3:50 looks like "Wolf" soundtrack. Amazing song, from one of the latest great Thrash N´Heavy Metal bands.
