Space junk rattling above my head, busy keeping watch so I haven’t really slept
storm cloud rolling from the west, a new fear sleeping in my bed
Oh oh oh oh, hey, johnny put the shields up
Oh oh oh oh, it’s time to blow on the wall
Oh oh oh oh, now everybody listen up
Oh oh oh oh, tonight I make the call, we’re gonna take it…
Sun drunk, something must be in my eyes, holding hands with the scared kid inside
Marching through the great divide, with a virus and a flood and a fire
Oh oh oh oh, hey, johnny put the shields up
Oh oh oh oh, it’s time to blow on the wall
Oh oh oh oh, now everybody listen up
Oh oh oh oh, I’m gonna make the call, tonight we take it all
Stand up, oh good hearted friend, grab your gear, man this is not the end
Dropped your guard and you took it on the chin, again and again and again…
Oh oh oh oh, hey, johnny put the shields up
Oh oh oh oh, it’s time to blow on the wall
Oh oh oh oh, now everybody listen up
Oh oh oh oh, I’m gonna make the call, tonight we take it all
