Song lyrics

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

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 unaesthetic 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 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
