I've been wasting all my time
With the devil in the details
I've got no energy to fight
He's a [bad word] pal o'mine
That devil in the details
And he's fixing up to take a bite
I don't see the point in trying
I've got the devil in the details
He's gonna teach me wrong from right
That [bad word] pal o'mine
That devil in the details

I'm gonna dance with him tonight
All of my wrongs
And all my wicked ways [bad word] back to haunt [bad word] what may
For all of the songs
I hope to write some day
Looks like the devil's here to stay

Let me take you for a ride
With the devil in the details
We'll kiss and tremble with delight
Everything is fine
With the devil in the details

We're gonna dance with him tonight
All of my wrongs
And all my wicked ways [bad word] back to haunt [bad word] what may
For all of the songs
I hope to write some day

Looks like the devil's here to stay
Looks like the devil's here to stay
Looks like the devil's here to stay

All of my wrongs
And all my wicked ways [bad word] back to haunt [bad word] what may
For all of the songs
I hope to write some day

Looks like the devil's here to stay
Looks like the devil's here to stay
Looks like the devil's here to stay

I've been wasting all my time
With the devil in the details
