The Turn of the Screw Lyrics by Heaven & Hell

The Devil You Know

2009

[Verse 1]
Another face at the window
To take me away from you
To a place that I just won't go
It's always hard to remember
Was it pleasure or pain? Oh well
I just don't want to know
[Chorus 1]
And there's service with a smile
Don't need to see your money
But one more thing to do
And we're just about to do it to you
The turn of the screw
[Verse 2]
He was born to be angry
A fire that just burned cold
And you knew you should keep away
Then on a night in the city
It happened, he lost control
So it's on to his last today
[Chorus 2]
They'll dress him up in style
To walk the final mile to somewhere
And one last thing to do
Oh, maybe it could happen to you
The turn of the screw
[Bridge]
If they lead, we will follow
And they're leading to you
We measure in time
And then we end
The mountains we climb
Are just pretend
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
You'll be rich, you'll be golden
Just sign on the dotted line
No need to read the rules
[Chorus 3]
And we might let you know
If there's a way to beg or borrow
But one more thing to do
And how we love to put it to you
The turn of the screw
[Outro]
Here comes another
You're empty and we're finished with you
On to the next one
And the turn of the screw
