Lyrics

[Verse 1]
If you flip the rug then you'll reveal an ugly scene
But the strength of ten thousand will never weaken me
Witches like a razorblade, you carve me half and half
Oh, I'd better wait to kill the time
[Verse 2]
Didn't you read it in the detail?
That if you're idle in your welfare
Now when you wanna know an answer
But if you're dancing, you're a dancer
[Verse 3]
The Devil takes care of his own
[Verse 4]
Do you dare to speak his name? There's evil at the room
Crueler plan, it's on your mind
Go on and give the dice a roll
Never did believe in sayin' fortunes are foretold
Easy come and easy they will go
[Verse 5]
Didn't you read it in the detail?
That if you're idle in your welfare
Now when you wanna know an answer
But if you're dancing, you're a dancer
Didn't you read about it?
Oh
[Verse 6]
The Devil takes care of his own
[Verse 7]
Didn't you read it in the detail?
That if you're idle in your welfare
Now when you wanna know an answer
But if you're dancing, you're a dancer
Didn't you read it in the detail?
That if you're idle in your welfare
Now when you wanna know an answer
But if you're dancing, you're a dancer
[Verse 8]
The Devil takes care of his own
