Devil take away— your time— what do you think?
Devil take away— nobody better than you— never find me
Take away now— my time— and you‘ll— never find me
Damn shame nothing we can do but try
It‘s a damn shame nothing we can do but cry
Dance in circles and scream so loud
Barricade the door and hide in the house
And I— gotta say that
You, don‘t always win, ain‘t it a sin
How the others play the game
Far way, that’s where I live
Live by the rules, go ask any fool now
Take it away, take it away, devil take
My time and d?vil take down
All my time and— devil tak? down
My, my time and
Damn shame nothing we can do but cry
It’s a damn shame it ain’t worth the effort to try
Damn shame, nothing left to do but hide
And he took my body and he took my pride
Damn shame— do but cry— give it all up and tell me that
You— never find me— no, no, no, no, no, no
Devil take away, take away
Devil take, devil take away
Take away, take away
(Guitar Solo)
Never the same, never the same, never the same twice
Throwin’ the dice, throwin’ the dice— feel lucky
Take it away, take it away, ain’t worth a fight
Tell me to pay, tell me to pay— never right
Giving it up, giving it up, give it all away
Making a deal, making a deal— light of day
Paying the price, paying the price with a dividend
Making it right, making it right
Till the living end, don’t you know that
You, don‘t always win, ain‘t it a sin
How the others play the game
Far way, that’s where I live
Live by the rules, go ask any fool now
Take it away, take it away

Danny Elfman (Daniel Robert Elfman) è un compositore, cantante e musicista statunitense nato a Los Angeles nel 1953.

Elfman ha collaborato in modo prolifico con i registi Tim Burton (Batman, Edward Scissorhands, The Nightmare Before Christmas) e Sam Raimi (Spider-Man), creando musiche iconiche che hanno contribuito a definire l'atmosfera e il tono dei loro film.

Tra i suoi brani più rappresentativi figurano "This Is Halloween" da The Nightmare Before Christmas, "The Simpsons Theme" (per la serie animata) e "Main Title" da Batman.
