John Butler Trio Devil Running Lyrics

Devil Running Lyrics

A sun does rise from distant lands

Tears run and fires burning

He
finds first place with dirty hands

He graduates man without learning

Agenda set

So long ago

This son's a puppet with a master

The hands stand still right by his side

Middle finger on the button of
disaster



And most of us we stand and watch

Like old lady
getting handbag stolen

It's time to chase, chase them criminals

I
see the devil and the devil is running



Bad buisness ties turn out
sour

Backstabbed man nothing forgotten

And in an unforgotten
hour

Seeds fall from an apple rotten

Now hate and fear have thier
own way

And don't the scum just love the distraction

Black blood
will need to be lanced

And when it's found you just blame

The
guilty faction



And now it's time not just to watch

Like old
lady getting handbag stolen

It's time to chase, chase them criminals

I see the devil and the devil is running



And now it's time not
just to watch

Like old lady getting handbag stolen

It's time to
chase, chase them criminals

I see the devil and the devil is running





And now it's time not just to watch

Like old lady getting
handbag stolen

It's time to chase, chase them criminals

I see the
devil and the devil is running
