The butcher wants to butcher, the baker wants to bake
The surgeon wants to cut, the banker wants to take
The ground wants to bury, the stars want to break
The mistress starts to shimmy, your commitment starts to shake
The history wants repeating, the wheel wants to turn
The lesson book is open, but no one wants to learn
The numbers want to grow without conscience or concern
The world is the kindling that we have set to burn
A hammer sees a nail, a hammer sees a nail
Without pity without fail, a hammer sees a nail
A hammer sees a nail, a hammer sees a nail
Without pity without fail, a hammer sees a nail
The bombs wanna drop, the planes wanna fly
Peace cannot wake in your greedy little eyes
The graves want fed and the wounds want sewn
The knives crave flesh and they're cutting to the bone
The markets need turmoil, the drama needs blood
The news needs a story they'll find it in the mud
A fight to the finish, a fight to the death
A fight till your very last breath
A hammer sees a nail, a hammer sees a nail
Without pity without fail, a hammer sees a nail
A hammer sees a nail, a hammer sees a nail
Without pity without fail, a hammer sees a nail
A hammer sees a nail, a hammer sees a nail
Without pity without fail, a hammer sees a nail
A hammer sees a nail, a hammer sees a nail
Without pity without fail, a hammer sees a nail
