We ain't keeping secrets, we ain't telling lies,
We're going public with this one, going nationwide
Hey, start the presses; this ain't pay-per-view,
Roll the cameras, this is front page news,
Roll the cameras, this is front page news.

You can buy a little and you could buy a whole lot more,
Can't take a red nickel of it with you when you go,
And go you will, and go you shall,
Go sooner or later, go then and now.

Hammer come down,
You're gonna spin the wheel,
You're coming forth, true like Bethlehem steel.

Whisper in the office, tell it in the shop,
Speak about it in the studio, shout if from the highest rooftop,
Hey, I'm very thirsty, but I can't complain,
Stuck in the desert, but expecting rain,
I'm stuck in the desert, but expecting rain.

Hammer come down,
Let the bells peal,
You're coming forth, true like Bethlehem steel,
Bethlehem steel.

And you sleep because you're lonely, and you sleep because it's night,
And you sleep well, because only you've been doing it your whole life,
Yeah, it's one thing to be dead in your trespasses,
And then again it's quite another to remain in them,
It's quite another to remain in them.

Hammer come down,
You're gonna spin the wheel,
You're coming forth, true like Bethlehem steel,
Oh, Bethlehem steel.
