flying fox and the hunter gatherers - hammer lyrics

Loading...

[chorus]
hear my monster’s heavy hands
hear the rumble of his pneumatic might
hear an unwed thrust into the land, and
bang. bang. bang
hear the hammer in the night

out in the open, and out in the rain
gaia gives birth to a south bound train
remember a childhood, remember a youth?
it was a warm spring, it was a hot one

and he was asking with a shuddered thud
to gets into position and slips into the mud
but love does he love you? love does he care?
it is his duty; it is a job

at four o’clock he starts his opening theme
a dramatic incarnation of industrial regime
we wouldn’t call it music, but it’s charming all the same
it is seductive in its ca-ca-ca-ca-ca-ca-ca

ca phony, and it works well
though she doesn’t need the courtship, she’s always in heat
waiting with her chin up, waiting here and there for a suitor
and here he comes, he says:

[chorus]
hear my monster’s heavy hands
hear the rumble of his pneumatic might
hear an unwed thrust into the land, and
bang. bang. bang
hear the hammer in the night

oh voyageur, see the ripples on the pond
oh voyageur, see the going going getting on

bang out an orphan, with an orphan-ish pain
his parents fuss and fight and leave a lonely little train
it’s the same old tragic story, yes we’ve heard it all before
these organisms reproduce and nothing more

out in the sunshine, out in the open
a tormented lack-of-love-child
is crying all alone
waiting for his p-ssengers, waiting for his people
and here they are and they’re angry, they say:

[chorus]
hear my monster’s heavy hands
hear the rumble of his pneumatic might
hear an unwed thrust into the land, and
bang. bang. bang
hear the hammer in the night
