Nuremburg Turmoil Part Ii
Nuremburg Turmoil Part II
It seems so sad to think that final result
To all of humanity has been an insult
Lives of people being taken advantage of
Bodies into incinerators they would shove.
Bodies were destroyed and badly twisted
Many forms of torture had been enlisted
Completely messing over my mind somehow
When I think of Auschwitz and Dachau.
We were once in Germany taking a tour
Avoided sight of Nuremburg trial for sure
Thinking about things that had been done
Collecting souls when country was over-run.
Not only that, they even killed there own
Whose last name of Stein meaning stone
That we assume were of Jewish Ancestry
Not from board of a local church vestry.
German people came up with perfect excuse
For all of the horror along with child abuse
In my mind, there is no explanation why
Those people were tortured and had to die.
