[Intro]
Hoo, hey!
[Verse 1]
As I get closer, my dreams get farther, oh
I climb the ladder, you kick it over
Thirsty for water, you gave me vinegar
I drink your medicine, it just makes me sicker
[Pre-Chorus]
I dug a hole so deep
I’m gonna drown in my mistakes
Can’t even sell my soul
It ain’t worth shit to take
[Chorus]
I've got the devil on my shoulder (Over and over)
I just can’t sink any lower (Lower and lower)
Hounds of hell, they're getting closer (Closer and closer)
I got the devil on my shoulder (Over and over)
[Verse 2]
Follow that rainbow, my lucky omen, well
There ain’t no pot of gold, just copper tokens
I found the key to life, the lock was broken
All my accomplishments, best left unspoken
[Pre-Chorus]
I dug a hole so deep
I’m gonna drown in my mistakes
Can’t even sell my soul
It ain’t worth shit to take
[Chorus]
I've got the devil on my shoulder (Over and over)
I just can’t sink any lower (Lower and lower)
Hounds of hell, they're getting closer (Closer and closer)
I got the devil on my shoulder (Over and over)
[Guitar Solo]
Ho! Hey!
[Bridge]
My horror story is nearly over
I said I’m sorry, but I was sober
I beg for mercy from my infernal friend
The one that drops the nails into my coffin
[Guitar Solo]
[Spoken]
Give it up for Ian D'Sa, ladies and gentlemen
Mister Jonathan Gallant on the bass guitar
And this is our buddy Loel on drums
How you doin'? Ah, I just wanna say one thing
I-I just wanna say, uh, I know- I've been very thankful
About a lot of things, but- it's true -but
I just need you all to know that, uhm, a dollar
From every ticket tonight went to a very great cause
And a very great charity called 'Warchild'
Where we're helping people out all around the world
That are flected by conflicts- affected by conflicts
So I just wanna say, as much as we've all had fun tonight
Together, collectively we came together and raised
A lot of money for a lot of good, so thank you very much
How are the top balcony people doing?
How are the balcony people? Hi, hello, hello! *laughs*
[Interlude]
I've got the devil on my shoulder- over and over
I got the devil on my shoulder- over and over
I got the devil on my shoulder- over and over
I got the devil on my shoulder- over and over
I've got the devil on my shoulder- over and over
I've got the devil on my shoulder- over and over
[Chorus]
I've got the devil on my shoulder (Over and over)
I just can’t sink any lower (Lower and lower)
Hounds of hell, they're getting closer (Closer and closer)
I got the devil on my shoulder (Over and over)
[Outro]
Hey! Ho!
Dankeschön!
[Spoken]
You know what? This was the point of the night, where-
It's like the encore, where we awkwardly leave stage
And then you all clap and then we come back
Like we were gonna leave, but we'll come back for just-
We're just gonna skip all that shit and just keep on playin', okay
You know what I'm sayin'? Let's just keep the party goin'
