Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Kings and sons of God
Travel on their way from here
Calming restless mobs
Easing all of their, all of their fear
[Chorus]
Strange times are here
Strange times are here
[Verse 2]
Statue in the square
Meant so much when it first stood
People come from far and near
To bless them if, bless them if it would
[Chorus]
Strange times are here
Strange times are here
[Verse 3]
Sadie, dry your tears
I will be the one
To pull you through the mirror
Before you come, before you come undone
[Chorus]
Strange times are here
Strange times are here
Strange times are here
Strange times are here
Written by: Dan Auerbach, Patrick Carney
