[00:11.000]Come labor get ready to dance for your bread
[00:15.000]My son I was once where you stand.
[00:19.000]There's a beast with insatiable hunger
[00:23.000]It's minions need crafters and skilled working hands.
[00:28.000]Needs a fortress high in the hilltops
[00:32.000]And we are the great chosen crew.
[00:37.000]But I am a lowly carpenter so
[00:42.000]What have I power to do?
[00:50.000]Oh misery call us to rise up at dawn
[00:55.000]To turn way as fast as we can.
[01:00.000]We may be the mortar that cradles the brick
[01:04.000]But I am just one grain of sand.
[01:09.000]And don't tell me of tossing the wrenches
[01:13.000]It only brings pleasure and pain.
[01:18.000]And we are all lowly carpenters so
[01:23.000]Where we're taken is where we'll remain.
[01:31.000]And the masters shall govern with unbroken backs
[01:37.000]Look down from the top of the hills.
[01:41.000]You can cry through the night just as much as you like
[01:46.000]There will always be towers to build.
[01:50.000]I coulda been more than some stone-dragging vassal
[01:54.000]I could be more than their wood-cutting slave.
[02:00.000]But we are all lowly carpenters so
[02:05.000]What have we power to change?
[02:16.000]And if you can't take no more then get out of the way
[02:21.000]For we've got a day to get through.
[02:26.000]We wire their castles, their prisons, and banks
[02:31.000]Know their mansions from cellar to roof.
[02:35.000]We've got hammers and wrenches and chisels
[02:39.000]We could destroy any great wall we come to.
[02:46.000]But I am a lowly carpenter so
[02:52.000]What have I power to do?
