The complete lyrics so far:

There's a time when the operation of the machine becomes so odious — makes you so sick at heart — that you can't take part. You can't even passively take part. And you've got to put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels, upon the levers, upon all the apparatus, and you've got to make it stop.

To save face, how low can you go?
Talk a lotta game, but yet you don't know.
Static on the way, makes us all say: WHOA!
The people up top push the people down low.
Get down, and obey every word.
Steady, get in line if you haven't yet heard.
Wanna take what I got? Don't be absurd.
Don't fight the power — nobody gets hurt.
If you haven't heard yet, then I'm lettin' you know:
There ain't shit we don't run when the guns unload!
And no one make a move, unless my people say so.
Got everything outta control, now everybody go:

Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey...

Steel unload, final blow!
We — the animals — take control!
Hear us now, clear and true:
Wretches and Kings, we come for you!

So keep pace, how slow can you go?
Talk a lotta shit, and yet you don't know.
Fire on the way, makes you all say: WHOA!
The people up top and the people down low.
Get down, and I'm runnin' it like that:
The front of the attack is exactly where I'm at,
Somewhere in between the kick and the hi-hat,
The pen and the contract, the pitch and the contact.
So get with the combat, I'm lettin' them know:
There ain't shit you can say to make me back down, no.
So push the button, let the whole thing blow.
Spinning everything outta control, now everybody go:

Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey

Steel unload, final blow!
We — the animals — take control!
Hear us now, clear and true:
Wretches and Kings, we come for you!

Steel unload, fire blow!
Filthy animals beat down low!
Skin and bone, black and blue,
Run on the sunshine, we conquer you!

From the front to the back and to side to side,
If you feel what I feel, put 'em up real high.

From the front to the back and to side to side,
If you feel what I feel, put 'em up real high.

From the front to the back and to side to side,
If you feel what I feel, put 'em up real high.

From the front to the back and to side to side,
If you feel what I feel, put 'em up real high.

From the front to the back and to side to side,
If you feel what I feel, put 'em up real high.

From the front to the back and to side to side,
If you feel what I feel, put 'em up real high.

There's a time when the operation of the machine becomes so odious — makes you so sick at heart — that you can't take part. You can't even passively take part. And you've got to put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels, upon the levers, upon all the apparatus, and you've got to make it stop. And you've got to indicate to the people who run it, to the people who own it that unless you're free, the machine will be prevented from working at all!

Run on the sunshine makes no sense whatsoever.

I've been hearing (and also seen it written on one site) sound more like...

"No more the Sun shall beat down to you"?

this was my first pick but then I've heard "no matter sun shall (or sunshine) beat down the low"

I don't hear the "d" at the end of the supposed "unload".....
I guess thats just me...

I hear "feel alone, final blow..." at the beginning of the chorus

“There’s a time when the operation of the machine becomes so odious, makes you so sick at heart, that you can’t take part; you can’t even passively take part, and you’ve got to put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels, upon the levers, upon all the apparatus, and you’ve got to make it stop.

To save face / how low can you go
Talk a lot of game but yet you don’t know
Static on the way / make us all say whoa
The people up top push the people down low
Get down
And obey every word
Steady getting mine if you haven’t yet heard
Wanna take what I got / don’t be absurd
Don’t fight the power / nobody gets hurt
If you haven’t heard yet then I’m letting you know
There ain’t shit we don’t run when the guns unload
And no one make a move unless my people say so
Got everything outta control
Now everybody go

Steel unload / final blow
We the animals take control
Hear us now / clear and true
Wretches and kings we come for you

So keep pace / how slow can you go
Talk a lot of shit and yet you don’t know
Fire on the way / make you all say whoa
The people up top and the people down low
Get down
And I’m running it like that
The front of the attack is exactly where I’m at
Somewhere in between the kick and the hi hat
The pen and the contract
The pitch and the contact
So get with the combat / I’m letting ‘em know
There ain’t shit you can say to make me back down no
So / push the button let the whole thing blow
Spinning everything outta control
Now everybody go

Steel unload / final blow
We the animals take control
Hear us now / clear and true
Wretches and kings we come for you
Steel unload / fire blow
Filthy animals / beat them low
Skin and bone / black and blue
No more this sun shall beat onto you

From the front to the back and the side to side
If you fear what I feel put ‘em up real high
