When the Wall Comes Down

Whatcha gonna do
When the wall comes down?
When the wall comes down?
What you oughta do is let it lie
Let it lie
And in the gathering darkness vow
To never go back
It was built by man and you can tear it down
Tear it down
Tear it down

Step back, Jack, from the darkness

Whatcha gonna do
When the shackles fall?
When the shackles fall?
What you oughta do is melt them down
Melt them down
Turn them into tools and make a garden
On the prison grounds
Turn your chains to roses, child
Tear it down
Tear it down

Step back, Jack, from the darkness

But while I'm here
I'm gonna sing just like a songbird

Whatcha gonna do
When the hunger's gone?
When the hunger's gone
Pity the child who goes without
Goes without
Give him no reason to falter
On his way down
It's a beautiful world but painful, child
Tear it down
Tear it down

Step back, Jack, from the darkness

But while I'm here
I'm gonna sing just like a songbird
