A political scorcher from Michael Been and The Call, “The Walls Came Down” reenacts the Battle of Jericho in a Cold War context. Been doubts the motivations of all sides in the conflict, declaiming even the loyalty of Americans and Russians in the face of corporate criminals manipulating them.
The Walls Came Down Lyrics
Well, they blew the horns
And the walls came down
They'd all been warned
And the walls came down
They stood there laughing
They're not laughing anymore
The walls came down
Down..
Sanctuary fades, congregation splits
Nightly military raids, the congregation splits
It's a song of assassins, ringin' in your ears
We got terrorist thinking, playing on fears
[Instrumental break]
Oh
Well, they blew the horns
The walls came down
They'd all been warned
But the walls came down
I don't think there are any Russians
And there ain't no Yanks
Just corporate criminals
Playin' with tanks
Ya ya ya ya ya ya
Ya ya ya ya ya ya
Ya ya ya ya ya ya
Ya ya ya ya ya ya
Yes, come on
Ya ya ya ya ya ya
Ya ya ya ya ya ya
Come on, come on, come on
Ya ya ya ya ya ya
Ya ya ya ya ya ya
Wake up
Ya ya ya ya ya ya
Ya ya ya ya ya ya
Go, yeah
Ya ya ya ya ya ya
Ya ya ya ya ya ya
Woo! Woo!
Ya ya ya ya ya ya
Ya ya ya ya ya ya
Ya ya ya ya ya ya
Ya ya ya ya ya ya
Come on, come on, come on, come on
Ya ya ya ya ya ya...
