Stop Wait Think Lyrics by Nuclear Assault

Out of Order

1991

[Verse 1]
People are dying every year
For all of the stupidest things
Boosting up a profit edge
Never mind their safety

[Chorus]
Stop, wait, think
Maybe what I'm trying to say is
Stop, wait, think
Your hands aren't clean; there's blood on them
Stop, wait, think
Every death that needn't be
Stop, wait, think
The pain of it rests on your head

[Bridge]
Read the papers, shake your heads
White-collar workers collect pay
Don't you see blood on your hands
When you cut corners on loose ends?

[Guitar Solos]

[Verse 2]
Separated from your crime
By hours of production lines
Matching lives against money
Keep your conscience nice and clean

[Chorus]
Stop, wait, think
Maybe what I'm trying to say is
Stop, wait, think
Your hands aren't clean; there's blood on them
Stop, wait, think
Every death that needn't be
Stop, wait, think
The pain of it rests on your head

[Outro]
Airplane seats that snap away
Cars that lack driver's airbags
Producers don't lose; they make
Money talks, common sense walks
A train crashes, a plane goes down
A ferry capsized, shuttle down
Cars that burst into the flames
No act of God; it's in your name
