And hide out in the cellar

Implying that conflict or war is imminent and near.

Don't believe the church and state

Advises skepticism towards established authority figures like the church and government.

And everything they tell you

Questioning the credibility of information provided by authority.

Believe in me, I'm with the high command

Can you hear me, can you hear me running?

Repeatedly asking if the message is being received, urging attention and responsiveness.

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

For some day sons and daughters
