Oh to walk the wire, believing that I can
And reach on down the you're throat
To tear it out
Find out what the beating's all about
[Chorus:]
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
[Chorus:]
Run your devil up the pole
Into my domain
The forgotten drool, like rabid dogs
By any other nmae
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 another 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 wroking here as of today
Hey mr. Savior do you ever seem to fail
And got what I got, a devil by the tail
Devil by the tail, devil by the tail
Oh to be the fire, I am just a man Oh to walk the wire, believing that I can And reach on down the you're throat To tear it out Find out what the beating's all about [Chorus:] 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 [Chorus:] Run your devil up the pole Into my domain The forgotten drool, like rabid dogs By any other nmae 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 another 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 wroking here as of today Hey mr. Savior do you ever seem to fail And got what I got, a devil by the tail Devil by the tail, devil by the tail Explain Request ×
