[Verse 1]
Let the killers go
Don't let your mother know
Don't go out tonight
Don't even try to fight
Cause I can see
I've got the thing you need
And I'm here to stay
It's gonna be that way

[Chorus 1]
Don't try to run, don't try to scream
Believe me
The hammer's gonna smash your dream

[Verse 2]
I'm in your life, just might be in your wife
Could be behind your back
I might be on your track
And it might be true, I might be hunting you
I'll scare you half to death
I'll take away your breath

[Chorus 2]
Don't try to see, don't you try to hide
Believe me
The hammer's gonna make you die
[Post-Chorus]
Ain't that right?

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
There ain't no way you'll see another day
I'm shooting out your lights
Bring you eternal night
And your eternal tricks begin to make me sick
The only thing I know is that you've gotta go

[Chorus 3]
Don't you panic, babe, don't look around
Believe me
The hammer's gonna bring you down

[Outro]
Believe me
The hammer's coming down
