Devil by the Tail Lyrics

The song Devil by the Tail is performed by Overkill .



Oh, to be the fire, I am just a man
Oh, to walk the wire, believing that I can
Reach on down you're 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, yeah, 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 another name
Devil by the tail

Run your Devil, take control
Before we go in
Devil, Devil
Devil, 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, Devil
Devil, Devil

Devil, Devil
(By the tail)

Devil, Devil
(By the tail)

Devil, Devil
(By the tail)
...
