Devil or the Blue Cat's Song Lyrics

Drunken spectators, the crucifield demon on my shoulder cry loud
Banging the head against the table
The whiskey can no longer find it's way home
In the corner of fallen fights a cat sits licking it's wounds
It's eyes will forever take me home

OOOOH devil from the birth (x2)
OOOOH devil or the blue cat's song

Poisoning the mind with liqour who calls all the demons to shine
Pain no penance, forget the martyrs
This is your own way to copy your mind
In the corner of fallen fights a cat sits licking it's wounds
It's eyes will forever take me home

OOOOH devil from the birth (x2)
OOOOH devil or the blue cat's song

In the light i'm blind but i'm clean
And they know in the darkness i'm home
Well there's something else and it's screams
And i know, if let i lose

OOOOH devil or the blue cat's song

The unexpected struggle to come back and plotting the forcast to stars
Fixtures the escot among the remembrance of the days that was falling apart
In the corner of fallen fights a cat sits licking it's wounds
It's eyes will forever take me home

OOOOH devil from the birth (x2)
OOOOH devil or the blue cat's song

Cover art for Devil or the Blue Cat's Song lyrics by Volbeat

Rather than just a simple song about alcoholism, "Devil from the birth" and "In the light I'm blind but I'm clean / And they know in the darkness I'm home" allude to the concept that the narrator in the song is genetically predisposed to alcoholism and is struggling with temptation.
