Oh to be the fire, I am just a man Oh to walk the wire, believing that I can And reach on down you're throat to tear it out Find out what the beating's all about
Justify my envy Jealousy to fail In perfect, deadly, harmony Hold the devil by the tail Devil, by the tail
Oh to slay the liar, he speaks for me a man Oh to try conspire, believing that I can And reach into your heart to pull it out Find out what the beating's all about
Run your devil up the pole into my domain The forgotten drool, like rabid dogs by any other name They growl, they bark, they gnaw at me I still hear them wail Pray to hold what I hold A devil by the tail
DEVIL, by the TAIL Run your devil, out your soul by any other name DEVIL, by the TAIL Run your devil, take control before we go insane DEVIL, DEVIL
Hey Mr. Lucifer, do you have my pay I'm done with working here as of today Hey Mr. Saviour do you ever seem to fail And got what I got, a devil by the tail
