Wrestle the devil


Roll up your sleeves
Have you heard the news
Or just a ratatat?
There's a villain in town
I heard he's a most dangerous one at that
Come in, let's force the iron
A lesson for the battle brat
Take the cape and the belt
Better take another sip of the philter now
As Svengali calls your name
Just a lily-livered chicken'd leave him on his own
This ain't the time to banter
But to draw the battle lines

Join me to the mat
We'll wrestle the devil
Let us take him on
Spread your wings
And take off like a hero
Welcome to the man world
Be a savior
Take your loin cloth on
We're gonna wrestle the devilWe're gonna wrestle the devil
Tonight

This far and no further, dead man
Smell the odor of my contest oil
Knucklebones of chimeras
Trophies dangle from my belt
I begin to boil
I can't stand infidels
And that applies to the devil too

Will you join me to the mat
We'll wrestle the devil
Let us strike him down
Spread your wings
And take off like a hero
Welcome to the man world
Be a savior
Take your loin cloth on
We're gonna wrestle the devil
We're gonna wrestle the devil

Holy knights will you heed the call
Wrestle the devil
The brave unite to let the hammer fall
Wrestle the devil
Raiding Mordor for the evil spoof
Wrestle the devil
Furry fellow with your cloven hoof
Wrestle the devil

Picture the horizon
Walking silhouettes
Safety helmets in our hands
In the setting sun

Will you join me to the mat
We'll wrestle the devil
Let us strike him down
Spread your wings
And take off like a hero
Welcome to the man world
Be a savior
Take your loin cloth on
We're gonna wrestle the devil
We're gonna wrestle the devil

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics WRESTLE THE DEVIL of EDGUY is also present in the album Monuments (2017)
