lyrics
Speak of the devil then out of the blue
I saw you today
Well, I thought it was you
It must be a year, might even be two
Maybe more
I tried to 'do better' but it's well understood
You'll only take perfect
You won't take the good
The dogs, they are waiting
They'll sniff out the blood
A soldier in search of a war
But it's too late tonight
And I don't wanna fight
Over battles of so long ago
But if that's how you feel
And you're sure that it's real
Come on, let the bad times roll
I tried to write prose but you said it must rhyme
You play all of the low notes all at the same time
And there's no room to freestyle
We all have to stick to the score
'Cause it's shot straight to hell or it's heavenly bright
It's light as the daytime or dark as the night
And there's no shades of grey here
It's all black or white
A solder in search of a war
But it's too late tonight
And I don't wanna fight
Over battles of so long ago
But if that's how you feel
And you're sure that it's real
Come on, let the bad times roll
I saw you today
Well, I thought it was you
It must be a year, might even be two
Maybe more
I tried to 'do better' but it's well understood
You'll only take perfect
You won't take the good
The dogs, they are waiting
They'll sniff out the blood
A soldier in search of a war
But it's too late tonight
And I don't wanna fight
Over battles of so long ago
But if that's how you feel
And you're sure that it's real
Come on, let the bad times roll
I tried to write prose but you said it must rhyme
You play all of the low notes all at the same time
And there's no room to freestyle
We all have to stick to the score
'Cause it's shot straight to hell or it's heavenly bright
It's light as the daytime or dark as the night
And there's no shades of grey here
It's all black or white
A solder in search of a war
But it's too late tonight
And I don't wanna fight
Over battles of so long ago
But if that's how you feel
And you're sure that it's real
Come on, let the bad times roll
