lyrics

Clip her wings
Keep her caged
She can fly
Don’t let her fly away

Hold her close
So she can’t see
The open sky that’s waiting

And bang bang bang goes the hammer
And down she goes
And down she goes
And bang bang bang goes the hammer
And down she goes

Give her options
Don’t let her choose
Either way
Make her lose

Find her fire
And put it out
She couldn’t handle it anyhow

And bang, bang, bang goes the hammer
And down she goes
And down she goes
And bang, bang, bang goes the hammer
And down she goes

Tell her real love
Comes with fear
Say I’m only protecting you dear

Keep her weak
So you feel strong
And pretty soon she’ll play along

This game can last for quite a while
You might put her to the edge
But you better hope when she sees through the smile
She doesn’t want revenge

Cus bang, bang, bang goes the hammer
And down you’ll go
And down you’ll go
And bang, bang, bang, go the hammer
And down you’ll go
Down you’ll go
Down you’ll go

These are the rules
