Wrestle the Devil Lyrics by Edguy

Monuments

2017

Roll up your sleeves
Have you heard the news
Or just a ratatat?
There's a villain in town
I heard he's a most dangerous one at that

Come in let's forge the iron
A lesson for the battle brat

Take the cape and the belt
Better take another sip of philter now
As Svengali calls your name
Just a lilylivered chicken'd leave him on his own

This ain't the time to banter
But to draw the battle lines

Join me! To the mat:
We'll wrestle the devil
Let us take him on
Spread your wing and take of like a hero

Welcome to the man world
Be a savior
Take your loin cloth on
We're gonna wrestle the devil
We're gonna wrestle the devil tonight

This far and no further, dead man!
Smell the odor of my contest oil
Knucklebones of chimeras
Trophies dangle from my belt
I begin to boil

I can't stand infidels
And that applies to the devil too

Will you join me! To the mat:
We'll wrestle the devil
Let us strike him down
Spread your wing and take of like a hero

Welcome to the man world
Be a savior
Take your loin cloth on
We're gonna wrestle the devil

(We're gonna wrestle the devil)

Holy knights will you heed the call
Wrestle the devil!
The brave unit to let the hammer-fall
Wrestle the devil!
Raiding Mordor for the evil spoof
Wrestle the devil!
Take that! Furry fellow with your cloven hoof!
Wrestle the devil!

[Solo]

Picture the horizon:
Walking sillhouettes
Safety helmets in our hands
In the setting sun

Will you join me! To the mat:
We'll wrestle the devil
Let us strike him down
Spread your wing and take of like a hero

Welcome to the man world
Be a savior
Take your loin cloth on
We're gonna wrestle the devil
We're gonna wrestle the devil
