Devil’s in the Detail

[Verse 1]
All alone I fought the cause
Up against the clock that studied me
It's the life anonymous
Trusted with the lives of all of us
I failed to see the flaws in the details I adored
And played God, I played God, played God

[Verse 2]
Science lay his heavy head
On the cold shoulder of consequence
Rushed where angels dare not tread
To force the hand of nature's accidents
Failed to see the flaws in the details I adored
And played God, I played God

[Chorus]
Said "Oh my God, the Devil's In The Detail
Oh lord, I just didn't look there"
We looked so long, we looked so hard
Looked so long, and looked so long
Said "Oh my God, the Devil's In The Detail
Oh lord, I just didn't look there"
We looked so long, we looked so hard
I looked so hard and for so long

[Outro]
Said "Oh my God, the Devil's In The Detail
Oh lord, I'm pretty sure we looked there"
I tried so hard and for so long
I tried so hard and for so long
Said "Oh, the Devil's In The Detail
Devil's In The Detail"
