The Devil's Been Busy

While you're strolling down the fairway
Showing no remorse
Glowing from the poisons
They've sprayed on your golf course
While you're busy sinking birdies
And keeping your scorecard
The devil's been busy in your backyard

Steaming down the highway
With your trucks of toxic waste
Where you gonna hide it
In the outer space
You don't know what you're doing
Or what you have to guard
The devil's been busy in your backyard

Sometimes you think you're crazy
But you know you're only mad
Sometimes your better off not knowing
How much you've been had

You see your second cousin
Wasted in a fight
You say he had it coming
He couldn't do it right
You're in a western movie playin' the part
The devil's been busy in your backyard
(The devil's been busy, now)

(The devil's been busy, now)
Sometimes they say you're wicked
But you know that can't be bad
Sometimes you're better off not knowing
It'll only make you sad
They're coming down Piccadilly
Dripping at the dash
Arresting sticky willy
Covering him with their cash
They just might not have noticed
They've been beating him so hard

Then the devil's been busy in your backyard
(Your devil's been busy, now)
The devil's been busy in your backyard
(Whoa, whoa, whoa been busy, now)
The devil's been busy in your backyard
(The devil's been busy now)
