Wikipedia article
"'Divine Hammer'" is a song by the Breeders, released as the second single from their album 'Last Splash' in 1993.
Meaning
Kim Deal later said, ""It's about existential angst, really. I'm just looking for some divinity come down and, you know what, I don't think there is anything. I don't use syringe drugs, but you could use drugs to find your divine your divinity. Christian songs, they use all of these things if you go around the mountain, and if you work hard with the hammer, and you meet a carpenter called Jesus Christ, and you travel miles and miles all these stupid symbolisms that Christian folk groups will use."
