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 your throat
To tear it out
Find out what the inside'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
Reach into your heart
And pull 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

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...

Hey Mr. Lucifer, do you have my pay?
I’m done with working 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...
