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
