Devil of a Time - Mischief Brew

Didn’t we have a devil of a time?

Didn’t we have a devil of a time?

A stranger stumbled into town

He talked of turning tables 'round

Didn’t we have a devil of a time?

Shot and slam the glasses upside down

Shot and slam the glasses upside down

I was the last one to take a mask

But the first one to strike a match

Shot and slam the glasses upside down

I did not paint a face on the sleeping guard

I did not paint a face on the sleeping guard

A conviction sleeps when the sun goes down

So copper try and catch me now

I did not paint a face on the sleeping guard

Well the silent sirens wait in the alleyways

Well the silent sirens wait in the alleyways

'Till the stone on board is cracked in two

We can spin the red and blue

Silent sirens wait in the alleyways

The alleyways, oh the alleyways

For the moon is under water

For the carnival canals

I gotta' rattle fragile waters

For what’s a city, with no underground?

Yeah, yeah, yeah’s

No underground

To wander through a Venetian maze

When the devil mocks the streets of New Orleans

But the Devil’s Brew I drank tonight

Tomorrow have me exorcised

I tighten up my necktie once again

Rahahahahah

Crown me the merry lord of this rule

With a cracked mask, late hangover, and a ragged suit

Well I curb sided, I crept from sleep

Some stranger left behind his reeds

Crown me the merry lord of this road

Hey hey, for the moon is under water

On the carnival canals

I gotta' rattle fragile waters

For what’s a city with no underground?

Yeah, yeah, yeah’s

No underground

Didn’t we have a devil of a time?

Didn’t we have a devil of a time?

They say who’s this drunkard stumbling down?

With rags upon that shorted brow

Didn’t we have a devil of a time?

Of a time?

Of a time?
