| i'd say this song is about the salem witch trials. but i also agree with kabel_tv, it could also be about praying for/accusing the innocent. | |

| Rob zombie is awesome.. This song seems to have a couple themes to it, but I really like the part about the 20 innocents. Its so true, we pray for innocent people in wars.. And we accuse innocent people of crimes ect. Cool song. | |

| i dont know a lot about this song, but i know its good and its my favoritest Rob Zombie song ever! my favorite part is: We all pray for 20 innocents We all bow down 20 innocents We all hang high 20 innocents We all accuse 20 innocents and... Do you want to know where the genes come from Some showed faith and some showed none (2x) i dont know, both of these song like a chorus to me.. i know the "we all pray for 20 innocents ect.ect." is the chorus, but the "do you want to know where their genes come from also sounds like part of the chorus...im not sure. the Halloween movie was great! -- well, most of it [the killing] was pretty c00|> if you haven't seen it, go to the theature. | |

| Obviously, it's referencing the Salem witch trials, which were an atrocity to say the least. To me, this song sends the message that as a society, we have become too quick to judge and condemn people because of their beliefs or lifestyle..... and that's nothing new for America. It also makes the statement that we now have the legal freedom (while honoring those who died and helped earn that right for us) to be who we want, but that doesn't mean that society accepts us. | |
