|
|
While you're strolling down the fairway
|
Showing no remorse
|
Glowing from the poisons
|
They've sprayed on your golf course
|
While you're busy sinking birdies
|
And keeping your scorecard
|
The devil's been busy in your back yard
|
|
Steaming down the highway
|
With your trucks of toxic waste
|
Where you gonna hide it
|
Maybe outer space?
|
You don't know what you're doing
|
Or what you have to guard
|
The devil's been busy in your back yard
|
|
Sometimes you think you're crazy
|
But you know you're only mad
|
Sometimes your better off not knowing
|
How much you've been had
|
|
You see your second cousin
|
Wasted in a fight
|
You say he had it coming
|
You couldn't do it right
|
You're in a western movie, playing the part
|
The devil's been busy in your back yard
|
|
Sometimes they say you're wicked
|
But you know that can't be bad
|
Sometimes you're better off not knowing
|
It'll only make you sad
|
|
They're coming down picadilly
|
Dripping at the dosh (english slang for money)
|
Arresting sticky willy
|
Clubbing him with their cosh
|
They just might not have noticed, they've been beating him so hard
|
The devil's been busy in your back yard
|
