Queen - Hammer To Fall

This audio is sourced from CMI's collection on QueenChat, he compiles the best quality sources for each song. So huge thanks to CMI for all his work, check out the forum thread here for more info (sign up is required): https://queenchat.boards.net/thread/171/queen-expanded-collection-cmi-music

This version of Hammer To Fall comes from the 1991 Hollywood Remasters by Eddy Schreyer and was released on March 5th, 1991 in the USA.

Although CMI has used the same source for his collection, he reverted the speed of some songs to their original recording speed, as they were sped up to fit on the vinyl or for artistic choice. I have used the same source but kept the original album speed we're familiar with.

Written by: Brian May
Produced by: Queen and Mack
Musicians:
Freddie Mercury - lead and backing vocals
Brian May - guitars, backing vocals
John Deacon - bass guitar
Roger Taylor - drums, backing vocals
Fred Mandel - synthesizer ("candy floss")

Lyrics:

Yeah

Here we stand or here we fall
History won't care at all
Make the bed, light the light
Lady Mercy won't be home tonight, yeah

You don't waste no time at all
Don't hear the bell but you answer the call
Comes to you as to us all, yeah
We're just waiting for the hammer to fall, yeah

Oh every night, and every day
A little piece of you is falling away
But lift your face, the western way, baby
Build your muscles as your body decays, yeah

Toe your line and play their game
Yeah, let the anaesthetic cover it all
Till one day they call your name
You know it's time for the hammer to fall, yeah

Rich or poor or famous for
Your truth it's all the same, yeah baby (oh no, oh no)
Oh, lock your door but rain is pouring
Through your window pane, yeah (oh no)
Baby now your struggle's all in vain

For he who grew up tall and proud
In the shadow of the mushroom cloud
Convinced our voices can't be heard
We just want to scream it louder and louder and louder

What the hell we fighting for?
Yeah, just surrender and it won't hurt at all, baby
Just got time to say your prayers, hey
While you're waiting for the hammer to, hammer to fall

Hey, yes, it's gonna fall, right
Hammer, you know it
Yeah, hammer to fall
Woooohh
Hey, yeah
Wow, wow
Ha
Ey, eh
Waiting for the hammer to fall, hey, baby
Yeah, yeah
While you're waiting for the hammer to fall

Give it to me one more time
