If I Had a Sledgehammer

IF I HAD A SLEDGEHAMMER

If I had a sledgehammer
I'd be sledging in the morning
I'd be sledging  in the evening, all over this land

I'd be dredging out the toxic sludge
and the people who drive wedges
all over this land

And if I had a silver hammer
I'd hammer bells like Maxwell
and I'd be hammering some judges
right over their heads

'Cause it's the jackhammer of justice
It's the pitchfork of freedom
Singing about the right to love
between my brothers and my brothers
and my sisters and their sisters
including their rights to wed

And if I had a jackhammer
I'd be jacking in the morning
I'd be jacking in the evening, all over this land
It's the drill-press of danger
It's the crowbar of warning
Stopping butting noses into business
between my brothers and my sisters
all over this land

And if I had a wrecking ball
I'd be wrecking some wedding bells
and I'd be breaking all the church bells
All over this land
'Cause they're churches preaching hatred
Churches trying to run the state
while preaching hate against
my brothers and my sisters
all over this land

And if I had a pickaxe
I'd be telling, not asking
Don't ask me not to tell you
all over this land

And if I had a tire iron
I'd be ironing in the morning
I'd be ironing in the evening, all over this land
I'd be ironing out some problems
Cause I'm tired of some people
Spreading lies about my brothers and sisters
all over this land

And if I had some scissors
I'd be running in the morning
I'd be running in the evening
with scissors in my hands
'Cause I'm sick of bullies
thinking they can bully all the sissies
all over this land

And if I had a nutcracker
I'd be crackin in the morning
'Cause there's too many nut cases
all over this land

And if I had a steam roller
I'd be rolling over holy rollers
And I'd be singing rock&roll
all over this land

And if I had a buzz-saw
I'd be buzzing in the morning
I'd be running out the outlaws
who are running this land

And if I had a sledgehammer
I wouldn't pledge my obedience
I'd take the sledge of allegiance
all over this land

And if I had sickle
I'd be slicing through the sickness
'Cause I'm sick of the stupidity
all over this land

Well, I've got a sledgehammer
and  I'd got a jackhammer
and I've got a crowbar
and I've got a nutcracker
for cracking some bells
and I've got a pitchfork
and I've got some scissors
and I've some pipes of lead
for hammering some sense right into heads

'Cause it's all, all more than I can stand
