Yeah Here we stand or here we fall History won't care at all Make the bed, light the light Lady mercy won't be home tonight
Yeah, you don't waste no time at all Don't hear the bell but you answer the call It comes to you as to us all Hey, we're just waiting For the hammer to fall - yeah
Oh every night, and every day A little piece of you is falling away But lift your face, the western way, baby Build your muscles as your body decays
Yeah, toe your line and play their game Yeah, let the anaesthetic cover it all Till one day they call your name You know it's time for the hammer to fall - yeah
Rich or poor or famous for
Your truth it's all the same - oh no - oh no Oh lock your door but rain is pouring Through your window pane - oh no - yeah Baby now your struggle's all vain
Oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh
For we who grew up tall and proud In the shadow of the mushroom cloud Convinced our voices can't be heard We just wanna scream it louder and louder and louder
What the hell we fighting for ? Ah, just surrender and it won't hurt at all You just got time to say your prayers Eh, while you're waiting for the hammer to hammer to fall Hey, yes, it's starting to fall eh, hammer, you know Yeah, hammer to fall, wooh, ah, hey, eh woowoo, ha eh hammer Waiting for the hammer to fall baby Yeah yeah while you're waiting for the hammer to fall Give it to me one more time
