The Devil Keeps Grinning

Lyrics

Ooh ooh it's a funny old life
 Bottle keeps spinning spinning
 Devil keeps grinning grinning
 Thinking about a war he's winning
 Ooh ooh everybody is a star
 Every star is a sun
 Every son is in the shadow of the father now
 Ooh ooh it's a funny old life
 Bottle keeps spinning spinning
 Devil keeps grinning grinning
 Thinking about a war he's winning
 Ooh ooh everybody is a star
 Sisyphus I feel you boy
 Roll roll rolling that rock all day
 No one lends a hand along the way
 They just smile and say
 "See you soon, see you soon, see you soon
 See you when the war is over
 See you when this gravity stops pulling me around
 When I get my feet up off the ground
 I'll come running"
 Ooh ooh it's a funny old life
 Bottle keeps spinning spinning
 Devil keeps grinning grinning
 Thinking about all my sinning
 Ooh ooh everybody is a star
 Every star is a sun
 Every son is in the shadow of the father now
 But you oh you
 Never be lonely
 Never blue
 Ooh never be lonely
 Never blue
 There's poetry in sickness
 Life is beautiful and cruel
 That's just the way it is
 And I can sleep but I can't rest
 They say the old songs are the best
 And I am still a young man
 Ooh ooh it's a funny old life
 Bottle keeps spinning spinning
 Devil keeps grinning grinning
 Thinking about a war he's winning
 Ooh ooh everybody is a star
 Everybody is a star . . . look it up.
