Yes, I got a cold, cold feelin'
Yeah, dancin' on hell's ceiling
I move to my side, I lengthen my stride
I saw the big one comin'
Oh, right now, I'm scared and runnin'
I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be there
When the hammer falls down
Yeah, when the hammer falls down
When the hammer falls down
Nails your balls to the ground
When the hammer falls down
Yeah, you got away with that one
No, you listen, you got away with nothin'
'Cause when the pendulum swings
A new dawn brings light of day
Oh, right now it's swingin' your way
I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be there
When the hammer falls down
Oh, when the hammer falls down
When the hammer falls down
Nails your balls to the ground
When the hammer falls down
Yeah
Yeah, we always think everything is all right
'Cause it feels all right, looks all right, wooh
Yeah, but you never know
So you keep lookin' over your shoulder, you know
Watch it, oh
So, you'll be cruising along
You might walk around a corner sometime
Karma hit ya in the face like an 18 lb. sledge
Yeah, when the hammer falls down
When the hammer falls down
Oh, when the hammer falls down
I don't wanna be around
Woah, when the hammer falls down
Oh, when the hammer falls down
When the hammer falls down
Oh, down, down, down, down
When the hammer falls down
When the hammer falls down
Yeah, when the hammer falls down
Yes
