Queen - Hammer To Fall lyrics

Words and music by brian may 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 We're just waiting For the hammer to fall Oh ev'ry night and every day A little piece of you is falling away But lift your face the western way 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 Rich or poor or famous For your truth it's all the same (oh no oh no) Lock your door the rain is pouring Through your window pane (oh no) Baby now your struggle's all in vain 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 louder What the hell we fighting for? Just surrender and it won't hurt at all You just got time to say your prayers While your waiting for the hammer to hammer to fall Yeah It's gonna fall Hammer..you know..hammer to fall Waiting for the hammer to fall now baby While you're waiting for the hammer to fall Give it to me one more time
