1
You lit a fuse
2
And then you ran away
3
You cried all day
4
When the axe came down
5
You pay your money
6
You take a chance
7
But now you do a different dance
8
And there'll be no pipers playing
9
When the axe comes down
10
You said the streets of the city
11
Were paved in gold
12
But you were bought and sold
13
Before the axe came down
14
You ran the gauntlet
15
You ran from the law
16
But you ran outta luck
17
When the axe came down
18
Now I can't tell you why
19
The martyrs had to fry
20
Some say it's just an act of God
21
Who dares wins
22
Who hesitates has lost
23
And now you pay the cost
24
When the axe comes down
25
And all you paid up Republicans
26
Who live by the gun
27
Your time will come
28
When the axe comes down
29
But every generation
30
Just filled with hate
31
Running from the blade
32
When the axe comes down
33
The architects and draftsmen
34
Who build the brave new world
35
They'll call for your blood
36
When the axe comes down
