TALK OF THE DEVIL As recorded by Dr. Feelgood (From the 1984 Album DOCTORS ORDERS) [Intro] [Verse 1] Keep looking back over your shoulder You don’t know who might be there Hiding under your bed or right behind your chair Watching every move now and hearing every word Be careful what you say now you might be overheard [Chorus] Don’t talk of the devil Don’t talk of the devil Don’t talk of the devil He might be near [Verse 2] He’s watching from the tv He waits to make a pass You pour him from a bottle He’s smiling from your glass He talks through women’s lips now He laughs through those eyes Shooting from the hip now It’s all a batch of lies [Chorus] Don’t talk of the devil Don’t talk of the devil Don’t talk of the devil He might be near Don’t talk of the devil Don’t talk of the devil Don’t talk of the devil He might appear [Guitar Solo] [Verse 3] Don’t say I didn’t warn you ’Cause I’m a man who knows Who wishes he’d never been born Bad from head to toe Better keep your nose clean And keep your cards to your chest The only thing you can do know Is keep hoping for the best [Out-Chorus] Don’t talk of the devil Don’t talk of the devil Don’t talk of the devil He might be near Don’t talk of the devil Don’t talk of the devil Don’t talk of the devil He might appear Don’t talk of the devil Don’t talk of the devil Don’t talk of the devil He might be near Don’t talk of the devil Don’t talk of the devil Don’t talk of the devil He might appear Don’t talk of the devil Don’t talk of the devil Don’t talk of the devil He might be near

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque l'idée que le mal peut être omniprésent, se cachant dans les endroits les plus inattendus de notre vie quotidienne. Elle nous met en garde contre l'importance de faire attention à nos mots et à nos actions, car le diable pourrait bien être tout près, écoutant et observant. Les paroles décrivent comment le mal peut se manifester sous différentes formes, que ce soit à travers des personnes ou même des objets familiers comme la télévision et des boissons. Cette menace invisible nous rappelle que, parfois, le danger se trouve là où l'on s'y attend le moins.
