Lyrics

[Verse 1]
He was carrying that madstone that just wouldn't fall away
So he woke up one bright morning to another broken day
Took himself down to the edge of town, the edge of his domain
Tied himself up to the fence to wait
[Verse 2]
And there he said
"Here Devil, here Devil
Hear me when I call
You been waiting for your moment
You been waiting for my fall
Been running round my brain
Like you had something to say
So why don't you come tell it to my face?
Tell it to my face"
[Verse 3]
Still raving at the hour
Oh, when all the witches meet
While his wife was inside crying
And his children were asleep
They had pleaded with him gently
All along that day
But he wouldn't have it any other way
[Verse 4]
And he said
"Brace yourself now, children
Run along, 'cause here they come
My very own abominations laughing in the midday sun"
He had feathers in his hair
Broken tethers flapping in the wind
And he said, "Come right in, I'm so glad you came
So glad you came"
[Verse 5]
He was made to listen
Till his eyes could hear
Hollow words a breaking
Like the dawn up through the hill, oh
And he waited until
[Verse 6]
And the Devil said
"Boy, you are a fire-eater
How'd you get to be that way?
Lift your eyes and drop that stone
We live to fight another day
Take it on back from the edge of town
From the edge of your domain
Go back home and join the human race
For who exactly do you think it was you were calling by that name?
Who exactly do you think it is that's carrying your name?
Yes, you are the beautiful number
And this time you get away
But guess who's gonna race you till you're dead
Said, boy, I'm gonna race you till you're dead
Till you're dead
Till you're dead"
