Speak of the Devil Lyrics & Tabs by John Brown's Body
Speak of the Devil
guitar chords lyrics
You should be that sound, don't ya speak that name
You better turn around/ and begin again
Righteous the river flow/ you cannot go against
Don't you trust in those, who would speak that name
My life's an open book, want you to reason it
Watch who you call upon, survivals not a game
Speak of the devil and he will appear
Speak only truth and let your words be clear- so you hear
Declare the truth in prayers you speak
x 2
Don't sleep for wolves are near
You got to keep your eyes open in this atmosphere
So don't you hold on to old lies that have lost their rhyme
Keep the words that still guide you
Watch who you speak them to
So don't you hold on to old lies that have lost their rhyme
Keep the words that still guide you
Watch who you speak them to
Don't come seeking sympathy
You'll have to answer for things you have been promoting
You'll find that none of the laws you wrote to fight the "immoral"
Can be call natural- we oppose your guidance
You speak in parables but fighting for your devilish dreams
Reciting words to deceive- a lonely soul you'll be
Speak of the devil and he will appear
Speak only truth and let your words be clear- so you hear
Declare the truth in prayers you speak
x 2
Speak words you want to believe
Don't forget that in time they will
Fulfill their prophecy
You betray your own faith so they hear you
Don't believe the sounds you hear
Or how they justify proof they try to engineer
Meditate on the crimes that lie in plain sight
Feel the earth move and cry out
Don't blind yourself to the truth
Don't claim you're not a part of it
You can't just shut your eyes to the world you're living in
Remember it first starts with a spark to spread some light
Now these words will ignite fires to bless the chosen few
You speak in parables but fighting for your devilish dreams
Reciting words to deceive- a lonely soul you'll be
Speak of the devil and he will appear
Speak only truth and let your words be clear- so you hear
Declare the proof in prayers you speak
x 2
