When the Wall Comes Down - Hiss Golden Messenger

What’cha gonna do

When the wall comes down

When the wall comes down

What you oughta do

Is let it lie

Let it lie

And in the gathering darkness vow

To never go back

It was built by man and you can tear it down

Tear it down

Tear it down

Step back, Jack, from the darkness

What’cha gonna do

When the shackles fall

When the shackles fall

What you oughta do

Is melt them down

Melt them down

Turn them into tools and make a garden

On the prison grounds

Turn your chains to roses, child

Tear it down

Tear it down

Step back, Jack, from the darkness

But while I’m here

I’m gonna sing just like a songbird

What’cha gonna do when the hunger’s gone

When the hunger’s gone

Pity the child who goes without

Goes without

Give him no reason to falter

On his way down

It’s a beautiful world but painful, child

Tear it down

Tear it down

Step back, Jack, from the darkness

But while I’m here

I’m gonna sing just like a songbird
