Sledgehammer Songtext
von Peter Gabriel

Hey, hey, you
Tell me how have you been?
You could have a steam train
If you′d just lay down your tracks

You could have an aeroplane flying
If you bring your blue sky back
All you do is call me
I'll be anything you want

You could have a big dipper
Going up and down, all around the bends
You could have a bumper car, bumping
This amusement never ends

I wanna be your sledgehammer
Why don′t you call my name?
I wanna be, sledgehammer
This will be my testimony, yeah, yeah


Show me 'round your fruitcage
'Cause Imma be your honey bee
Open up your fruitcage
Where the fruit is as sweet as can be

I wanna be your sledgehammer
Why don′t you call my name?
I wanna be hey, sledgehammer
Put your mind at rest
I wanna be hey, sledgehammer
This gonna be like Testimony
Hey, sledgehammer

There′ll be no doubt about it
(Sledge, sledge)
(Sledgehammer), hey

I kicked the habit (kicked the habit, kicked the habit)
Shed my skin (shed my skin)
This is the new stuff (this is the new stuff)
I go dancing in (we can go dancing in)

Show for me (Show for me)
I will show for you (show for you)
Won't you how for me (show for me)
Oh, I will show for you
Yeah, yeah, yeah, only you


Show for me (Show for me)
I will show for you (show for you)
Won′t you how for me (show for me)
I will show for you
Yeah, yeah, yeah, only you

It's over now
You have power now
Yeah, come on, come on, help me do
Come on, come on, help me do
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I′m feeling it now
