[r_eventide]

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 runnin'?
Can you hear me runnin', can you hear me callin' you?

Can you hear me, can you hear me runnin'?
Can you hear me runnin', can you hear me callin' you?

There's a gun and ammunition just inside the doorway
Use it only in emergencies.
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 runnin'?
Can you hear me runnin', can you hear me callin' you?

Can you hear me, can you hear me runnin'?
Can you hear me runnin', can you hear me callin' you?

Swear allegiance to the flag, whatever flag they offer;
Never hint at what you really feel.
Teach the children quietly, for someday sons and daughters
Will rise up and fight while we stood still.

Can you hear me, can you hear me runnin'?
Can you hear me runnin', can you hear me callin' you?

Can you hear me, can you hear me runnin'?
Can you hear me runnin', can you hear me callin' you?

Can you hear me, can you hear me runnin'?
Can you hear me runnin', can you hear me callin' you?

Can you hear me, can you hear me runnin'?
Can you hear me runnin', can you hear me callin' you?

Can you hear me?
