Devo - The Shadow lyrics

A real nice guy with a na na na na nasty side

In trouble

He tried to hide from himself

Good gawd sad man

Couldn?t face up to the yin and the yang

Everybody

All of us got a shadow

Who knows what lurks in the hearts of men

The shadow knows

We become what we do, not what we pretend

Between the intention and the expression

Between the emotion and the response

Falls the shadow

Guitar

Sometimes I fail to follow through

On things that I want to do

And other times I find myself doing the very things I hate

Reverend Jimmy and Tammy Belle

Big time pumpers with a story to sell

Wait a minute

Their finger?s pointing at you

Pay attention, listen up

Don?t try to deny it or cover it up

Everybody

All of us got a shadow
