You're holding backYou're hard to readYour a 21st century kindYou're lighting fastBuilt for speedA tight lipped modern mindAn architectOf grand romanceYou're a mystery of disguiseYou're holed up in your houseJust waiting for the fireYou're buttoned downAll sown upYou're an ontological soulCold hard truthOnly proofWhat we already knowYou're gonna need a claw hammerOh my LordTo bust on throughAnd break down your wallsLoosen your lipsSlacken that jawIt's gonna take a claw hammerOh my LordLook at us foolsBeing usedWe're totally dumb, surprisedWaiting for you to share with usThe myth behind the liesCome on outThrow us a boneWe want to know your intentionsAre you fakeFor goodness sakeOr the Mother of InventionYou're buttoned downAll sown upYou're an ontological soulCold hard truthOnly proofWhat we already knowYou're gonna need a claw hammerOh my LordTo bust on throughAnd break down your wallsLoosen your lipsSlacken that jawIt's gonna take a claw hammerOh my LordYou're gonna need a claw hammerOh my LordTo bust on throughAnd break down your wallsLoosen your lipsSlacken that jawIt's gonna take a claw hammerOh my LordIt's gonna take a claw hammerOh my LordIt's gonna take a claw hammerOh my Lord
