Sledge Hammer

Howling storms, sirens, hurricanes
At four in the morning
When I come down the hall, down the hallway
And 77 steps up the spiral staircase
Oh, where are we going and what do you want from me?
You say I need to sleep
And my bones are stretching
Someday it will get better
Until then it’s just gonna get worse
When I grow up all the kings will come down from their thrones
When I grow up the sirens will come to repair my bones
When I grow up all the kings will come down from their thrones
When I grow up the sirens will come to repair my bones
I hear your song in the faucets, and down corridors
And the howls wash through the floors
You say every time I try to turn I will fall
And see how we’re running, and see how we’ll show
We’ll burn this house down while you’re tied to its walls
While everybody howls
And when I grow up, yeah, when my bones have stopped growing
When I grow up, yeah, I’ll be like a feather
And when I grow up, yeah, when my bones have stopped growing
When I grow up, yeah, I’ll be a sledge hammer
And when I grow up, yeah, when my bones have stopped growing
When I grow up, yeah, I’ll be like a feather
And when I grow up, yeah, when my bones have stopped growing
When I grow up, yeah, I’ll be a sledge hammer
