Hey friend it won't be too long now
'til the [bad word] to town
and leads us underground
hey girl the city will eat you alive
and leave the faintest burn mark
on the dirty city sidewalk

And will I be ready
when I hunt them down like dogs
and will I just listen
when they're quoting me their laws
And will I be ready
when I hunt them down like dogs
and will I just listen
when they're quoting me their laws

Hey y'all it's not like nobody warned us
we roast upon the fire
of aggressive imperial desire
hey friend I see you down the road
the road that's strewn with ashes
and burnt child's eyelashes

And will I be ready
when I hunt them down like dogs
and will I just listen
when they're quoting me their laws
And will I be ready
when I hunt them down like dogs
and will I just listen
when they're quoting me their laws

And will I be ready
when I hunt them down like dogs
and will I just listen
when they're quoting me their laws
And will I be ready
when I hunt them down like dogs
and will I just listen
when they're quoting me their laws

And will i be ready
when I have to do the deed
with a long splendid sword
and balanced honesty
and will I be ready
and will I just listen
or will I be ready
or will I just listen
or will I be ready [bad word] yeah I'll be ready
yeah I'll be ready
no I will not listen

get ready
