Oh, why do you treat me so Oh, why do you treat me so You cause me to weep And you cause me to moan You cause me to pack up My bags and leave home Oh, why do you treat me so Oh did you hear the thunder? Or the rain? Means I’m coming home again Means I’m coming home my friend Oh did you steal my name? Oh, you Jack of all trades You’re the master of none Oh, the race has begun I was born a champion I was born to jump and run Oh did you hear the rain? Oh, the rain? You can try and run and hide Tearing at the chain Oh, Lucifer’s inside Oh did your siblings tell you I was wasting up your time Oh, now you’re wasting mine You put me back in line And I’m counting every link And I guess you think that’s fine Oh did you hear the rain? Oh, the rain? You can try and run and hide Tearing at the chain Oh, Lucifer’s inside Oh, did I send a shiver Down your spine? Well I do it all the time It’s a little trick of mine Did I make you shake your knees Did I make him spill his wine Lord, I’m spreading like disease Know I’m all up in your mind Oh, Lucifer’s inside Oh, Lucifer’s inside Oh did you hear the rain? Oh, the rain? You can try and run and hide Tearing at the chain Means I’m coming home again Means I’m coming home my friend Oh, Lucifer’s inside Oh, Lucifer’s inside Lucifer’s inside.
