The Wallflowers - The Devil's Waltz lyrics

These men down in the water they are not lost There's poison in the arrows that come across No you don't leave your post at any cost There's more than just bottles washing up on the rocks Your idle hands are what he wants And your songs of pity are the devil's waltz They are the devil's waltz The devil's waltz Need a busload of faith and a healer's touch And a whole lot of field to know the work from luck All the future's wide open but not wide enough It ain't any wonder, these kids are still getting drunk These idle hands are what he wants And your songs of pity are the devil's waltz They are the devil's waltz The devil's waltz No you don't leave your post at any cost There's more than just bottles washing up on the rocks Your idle hands are what he wants And your songs of pity are the devil's waltz Your idle hands are what he wants And your songs of pity are the devil's waltz They are the devil's waltz The devil's waltz The devil's waltz The devil's... waltz
