The Devil's Been Busy lyrics

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 backyard

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 backyard

Sometimes you think you're crazy

But you know you're only mad

Sometimes you're 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

He couldn't do it right

You're in a western movie

Playing the part

The devil's been busy in your backyard

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

Arresting Sticky Willy

Clubbing him with their cosh

They just might not have noticed

They've been hitting him so hard

The devil's been busy in your backyard

The devil's been busy in your backyard

The devil's been busy in your backyard
