Silent Running

Take the children and yourself
 And hide out in the cellar
 By now the fighting will be close at hand
 Don't believe the church and state
 And everything they tell you
 Believe in me, I'm with the high command
 Can you hear me, can you hear me running?
 Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?
 Can you hear me, can you hear me running?
 Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?
 There's a gun and ammunition
 Just inside the doorway
 Use it only in emergency
 Better you should pray to God
 The Father and the Spirit
 Will guide you and protect you from up here
 Can you hear me, can you hear me running?
 Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?
 Can you hear me, can you hear me running?
 Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?
 Swear allegiance to the flag
 Whatever flag they offer
 Never hint at what you really feel
 Teach the children quietly
 For some day sons and daughters
 Will rise up and fight while we stood still
 Can you hear me, can you hear me running?
 Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?
 (Oh, can you hear me running?)
 Can you hear me (can you hear me?), can you hear me running?
 (Hear me calling, calling...)
 Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?
 (Oh can you hear, can you hear me calling?)
 Can you hear me, can you hear me running?
 Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?
