Hammer and Peach
Why don't remember
How we came together?
But never in a month of murders
Would I have imagined the state we've reached
And yet, when we came together like a hammer and peach
Why don't remember
How we got surrendered?
To somebody's hand-me-down hatred
That thinks with its feet while its foot's in the door
And yet, when we come together, we make such a civil war
You have to be naked to get clean
You have to be wicked to know what wickedness means
You have to be holy to know which way folks lean
And put the Madonna and child on a float wearing Union Jack jeans
Why don't remember
How we crossed the embers?
Not by asking the rich and the powerful
How these beggars strike their good will
And yet, when we come together, they say the saints feel ill
Why don't remember
How they tarred and feathered?
The ones with the longest memories
Along with the ones they forgot to teach
And yet, when we came together like a hammer and peach
You have to be naked to get clean
You have to be wicked to know what wickedness means
You have to be holy to know which way folks lean
And put the Madonna and child on a float wearing Union Jack jeans
Union Jack jeans
Why don't remember
How we came to be together?
But never in a month of murders
Would I have imagined these states we've reached
And yet, when we come together
And yet, we'll come together
And yet, we'll come together
Like a hammer and peach
Like a hammer and peach
Like a hammer and peach
Like a hammer and peach
Like a hammer and peach
Like a ham-
Why don't remember?
Why don't remember?
And yet, we'll come together
And yet, we'll come together
And yet, we'll come together like a hammer and peach
How we came together?
But never in a month of murders
Would I have imagined the state we've reached
And yet, when we came together like a hammer and peach
Why don't remember
How we got surrendered?
To somebody's hand-me-down hatred
That thinks with its feet while its foot's in the door
And yet, when we come together, we make such a civil war
You have to be naked to get clean
You have to be wicked to know what wickedness means
You have to be holy to know which way folks lean
And put the Madonna and child on a float wearing Union Jack jeans
Why don't remember
How we crossed the embers?
Not by asking the rich and the powerful
How these beggars strike their good will
And yet, when we come together, they say the saints feel ill
Why don't remember
How they tarred and feathered?
The ones with the longest memories
Along with the ones they forgot to teach
And yet, when we came together like a hammer and peach
You have to be naked to get clean
You have to be wicked to know what wickedness means
You have to be holy to know which way folks lean
And put the Madonna and child on a float wearing Union Jack jeans
Union Jack jeans
Why don't remember
How we came to be together?
But never in a month of murders
Would I have imagined these states we've reached
And yet, when we come together
And yet, we'll come together
And yet, we'll come together
Like a hammer and peach
Like a hammer and peach
Like a hammer and peach
Like a hammer and peach
Like a hammer and peach
Like a ham-
Why don't remember?
Why don't remember?
And yet, we'll come together
And yet, we'll come together
And yet, we'll come together like a hammer and peach
