Biography:
Billy Talent is a Juno Award-winning Canadian rock band formed in 1993. They performed and recorded together for about a decade before finding a wide mainstream following. Originally called Pezz, the group originates from Streetsville, in Mississauga, Ontario, but now hail from Toronto, Ontario.
The name is inspired by a character named "Billy Tallent" in the 1993 book "Hard Core Logo" by Michael Turner (filmed in 1996) and it has been the name of the band since 2001, after a dispute with the American Pezz.

Gm F Eb
Hey!
Gm F
Down let's take it down
Eb Cm
Raise up the heads on a stake
Eb Gm
We will show no mercy
D
On evolution's mistake
Gm F
Change will have to wait
Eb Cm
If we can't decide on a fate
Eb Gm
Self appointed profits
D
And a doomsday charade
Cm
You preach about love
D
And teach about fate
Bb
But all your beliefs are still rooted in hate
[x2:]
Gm
Crosses still burn
F
Axes still fall
Eb
And down on your knees you just don't look so tall
Gm F
Stop punch in the clock
Eb Cm
Punch it with all of your rage
Eb Gm
Put the men in office
D
For a minimum wage
Gm F
Rats fighting for scraps
Eb Cm
Siphon the gas from your tank
Eb Gm
Left your pockets empty
D
As they laughed to the bank
Cm
They speak about trust
D
But make no mistake
Bb
They're shaking your head while they spit in your face
[x2:]
Gm
Crosses still burn
F
Axes still fall
Eb
And down on your knees you just don't look so tall
Gm F
Now the time is now
Eb Cm
We can still turn it around
Eb Gm
Raise your voice like a weapon
D
Til they fall to the ground
Gm F
Light let there be light
Eb Cm
Without a shadow of doubt
Eb Gm
We will fight tooth and nail
D
Until salvation is found
Cm D
So how can you look the world in the eyes
Bb
When all we can see his corruption and lies
Down on your knees you don't look so tall x
Gm F Eb
Cracking the whip on the backs of the poor
Gm F Eb
We asked you to stop but you still wanted more
Gm F Eb
The blood on your hands left a trail as you crawl
Gm F Eb
Down on your knees you just don't look so tall
[x3:]
Gm
Crosses still burn
F
Axes still fall
Eb
Down on your knees you just don't look so tall
Gm
Crosses still burn
F
Axes still fall
Eb
Down on your knees you don't look so tall
Open your eyes and the empire falls
