God, I'm tired of all this clever talk
All their words go up in intellectual smoke
They sell opinions like precious stones
And ride off, on the high horse, with our fortune in tow
He taught you well, taught you everything you know
A killer class, only the beast can show
That power is a whip or a hanging noose
Power is the difference between us and you
Last call and one for the soul they say
Better than the devil, is the devil you know
Oh boy, you're gonna reap what you sow, they say
Better than the devil, is the devil you know
God, I'm tired of your recited lines
Smooth as silk or a burgundy wine
You stole their hearts and you stole the show
With your hand in my pocket and a bug in my phone
Last call, before we implode, they say
Better than the devil, is the devil you know
Oh boy, you're gonna reap what you sow, they say
Better than the devil, is the devil you know
