Demon

There's been a whole lot of trouble in the place where I've been

It's bothered the king and it's upset the queen

The knaves have been playing with the princesses' maid

The jester's been running 'round the courtyard again.

And I've been cryin', someone's lying

I'm relying on my mind

I'm not forgivin', I've stopped living

There's a demon and it's gonna be stopped

Because it's got everyone on the run.

The owls are all hootin' and no one can sleep

The shepherds are worrying 'cause they're losin' their sheep

The soldiers are marching with their steel sticks of war

People are runnin' and they can't take no more

And I've been cryin', someone's lying

I'm relying on my mind

I'm not forgivin', I've stopped living

There's a demon and it's gonna be stopped

Because it's got everyone on the run.

The icebox is steaming, the oven is cold

The moon’s turned yellow, the sun's turned to stone

The windmill's stopped turning, the flowers won't grow

The taps have stopped running and the clocks have gone slow.

And I've been cryin', someone's lying

I'm relying on my mind

I'm not forgivin', I've stopped living

There's a demon and it's gonna be stopped

Because it's got everyone on the run.

Ohhh …

The icebox is steaming, the oven is cold

The moon’s turned yellow, the sun's turned to stone

The windmill's stopped turning, the flowers won't grow

The taps have stopped running and the clocks have gone slow.

And I've been cryin', someone's lying

I'm relying on my mind

I'm not forgivin', I've stopped living

There's a demon and it's gonna be stopped

Because it's got everyone on the run.
