They said it couldn't be done And so it seems I proved them all wrong A sleight of hand And I have become the chosen one This is the devil's game This is a holiday This is the devil's game And it turns me on All I ever wanted is a little recognition Here I sit with my head in my hands Lost in a sea of deception And the ship won't let me sleep And the wind won't talk me down England expects England expects If you feed them a line They will take it and run And who could blame them? This is the devil's game This is a holiday This is the devil's game And it turns me on But all that I have gained is recognition And lost in time
