Lyrics ~ It Just Don’t Get Any Better Than This Single release
I can’t see through the mud
I can’t see through the dirt
It’s the devil’s world everything’s obscured
Sex can be delivered from a voice on the phone
Anything you want can be procured
Down here on Earth it’s the devil’s world
Down here on Earth it’s the devil’s world
It’s the Devil’s world
Stealing from computers in the city tonight
Criminals armed with a telephone line
Nobody’s safe, everybody’s on file
You sample the merchandise, You pay the price
Down here on Earth it’s the devil’s world
Down here on Earth it’s the devil’s world
It’s the Devil’s world
I can’t see though the mud
I can’t see through the dirt
Down here on Earth It’s the devil’s world
It’s the devil’s world, world
It’s the devil’s world, world
It’s the devil’s world
I ain’t got no home in this world no more
Homeless people in a world they cannot afford
As I wander around with the sick and the poor
They say “Life’s is a joke written on death’s door”
Down here on Earth it’s the devil’s world
Down here on Earth it’s the devil’s world
Down here on Earth it’s the devil’s world
Down here on Earth it’s the devil’s
It’s the Devil’s world It’s the Devil’s
It’s the Devil’s world It’s the Devil’s
It’s the Devil’s It’s the Devil’s
It’s the Devil’s It’s the Devil’s world
It’s the Devil’s It’s the Devil’s
It’s the Devil’s world
