Dead To Rights Lyrics

Is this what you came for,
I know what I'm here for,
Knocked down right to the floor,
Committed to kill!
What you don't know,
Can't just let it go
They webbed me in this

Take cause you need more
Don't ask what's in store
You'll be knocked down right to the floor.
Committed to kill!
What you don't know,
Can't just let it go
With all their hypocrisy

My stomach's in knots,
Throw at me what you got,
'Cause I will break free, from all the webs that bind me
My stomach's in knots,
Throw at me what you got,
'Cause I will break free, from all the webs that bind me

I'm fit to be tied
I've got you dead to rights,
It's like a suicide,
Living alongside you, yeah!

So, get what you came for,
Fucked up on the floor,
Kicked straight out the door,
Get yourself up
and beg to no man
Who webbed me in this

Take cause you need more
Don't ask what's in store
You'll be knocked down right to the floor.
Committed to kill!
What you don't know,
Can't just let it go
With all their hypocrisy

My stomach's in knots,
Throw at me what you got,
'Cause I will break free, from all the webs that bind me
My stomach's in knots,
Throw at me what you got,
'Cause I will break free, from all the webs that bind me

I'm fit to be tied
I've got you dead to rights,
It's like a suicide,
Living alongside you, yeah!

Webbed me up
You webbed me
Hung me out to dry
Had no idea,
I've got dead to rights, yeah!
Dead to rights!

Don't take it too personal
Is just that trouble is coming
Yeah!
You know it could be God damn true!
I got you dead to rights!
I got you dead to rights!
I got you!
I got you dead to rights!
I got you dead to rights!

Cover art for Dead To Rights lyrics by DevilDriver

This is one of my favorite DevilDriver songs. In an interview done before Beast was released. Dez talked about hypocrites, and how you can't wait to call them out on their bullshit and have them "dead to rights". I feel this is loosely an overarching theme of the entire album. These hypocrites and just in general bad people, are Beasts among us. They Hardened, Coldblooded, Make us Sick, never Blame themselves. They're on our Shitlist, and when the time comes, we'll have them Dead to Rights and Bring the Fight to the Floor.

@SnarkyFox If you're interested in what the actual lyrics are, see my latest post. For some reason, when I submit the correct lyrics to this site, they never change. I have verified the lyrics I posted in these comments from the actual, physical liner notes that came with the CD I purchased. You can also find the correct lyrics on other sites.

THE ABOVE LYRICS ARE HORRIBLY WRONG.

Now that I have your attention. I have made several attempts to change these incorrect lyrics. I guess the author never responds to the change requests. I don't know where they came from but there are similar sites with the exact same errors so the source of these is dubious at best. ANYway, the correct lyrics, as referenced in the actual, physical liner notes I have in my hand:

Is this what you came for I know what I'm here for Knocked down right to the floor Commited to kill! What you don't know Can't just let it go! They webbed me in this

Take cause you need more Don't ask what's in store! You'll be knocked down right to the floor Committed to kill! What you don't know Can't just let it go With all their hypocrisy!

My stomach's in knots Throw at me what you got 'Cause I will break free, of all the webs that bind me My stomach's in knots Throw at me what you got 'Cause I will break free, of all the webs that bind me

I'm fit to be tied I've got you dead to rights It's like a suicide Living alongside you

So... Get what you came for Fucked up on the floor Kick straight out the door Get yourself up And bend to no man No man Who webbed me in this

Take cause you need more Don't ask what's in store! You'll be knocked down right to the floor Committed to kill! What you don't know Can't just let it go With all their hypocrisy!
