The Devil and Darkness Lyrics by Freur

Get Us Out of Here

1984

1
The Devil and Darkness came today
Stole all my hope and ran away
I turned on you
And you turned on me
Rolling in the gutter with a Snickersee

Chorus:
Everybody dance
Rolling in the dirt
Pickin' on the chicken in a Chinese shirt
Praise to the hop
Sing-a-to-the-vine
And everybody here was a friend of mine...yesterday

2
The Devil and Darkness came today
Stole all my love and ran away
I danced in the streets and I raised a cry
And if you disagree I'll spit in your eye

Chorus:
Everybody dance
Rolling in the dirt
Pickin' on the chicken in a Chinese shirt
Praise to the hop
Sing-a-to-the-vine
And everybody here was a friend of mine...yesterday

(Interlude):
Gather to the joyous sound
All the little chiefs run around
Beat each other to the ground
We were so in love!
We were so in love!

3
Well the Devil and Darkness came today
Gave me a flag and ran away
My flag's better than the one next door
See the busy mummers in an all-out war

Chorus:
Everybody dance
Rolling in the dirt
Pickin' on the chicken in a Chinese shirt
Praise to the hop
Sing-a-to-the-vine
And everybody here was a friend of mine...yesterday
