Devil comes out at night
Looking for some young bones to do his work
Maybe you could steal and drive
Sticking needles in your arm in the park

Hey kids, where's the gun?
Where's the old fun?
Hey kid, where's your gun?
Who's going to have this fun?

Devil blows his wind down my road
Looking for some fragile minds
Maybe I could steal and get loose
Maybe we could dance to get loose

Hey kids, where's your guns?
Don't you have no fun?
He said, "Hey kid, pick up the gun, don't you like this fun?"
He said, "Hey kid, pick up the gun, don't you want a little fun?"

Devil blows cold down my road
Looking for some young bones for his work
You don't work, and you can't eat

Devil's gonna pick up your bones, on your bones
And devil's gonna dance on your bones, on your bones (x7)
