Lyrics

Devil’s Den

Pouring the water into the hollows
Vinegar Tom and all his friends will drink for free
Am I a fool tempting you?

Do you know what you've done? No, I haven't a clue
Well, you're dead if you float, and you're dead if you sink
Do you know what you've done? No, I haven't a clue
All these fears and beliefs, they'll do funny things to you

Pouring the water into the hollows
Vinegar Tom and all his friends will drink for free
Am I a fool tempting you?

In the devil's-
In the devil's-
In the devil's-
In the devil's den

Fears and beliefs, they'll do funny things to you
Do you know what you've done? No, I haven't a clue
You're dead if you float, and you're dead if you sink
Do you know what you've done? No, I haven't a clue

Those fears and beliefs, they'll do funny things to you
Do you know what you've done? No, I haven't a clue
You're dead if you float, and you're dead if you sink
All those fears and beliefs, they'll do funny things to you

Pouring the water into the hollows
Pouring the water into the hollows
Pouring the water into the hollows
Pouring the water, the devil's den
