Cover art for Devil Running lyrics by John Butler Trio

If you could edit the lyrics, that would be great....the majority of them are incorrect...refer here:

And, as for my opinion, once you read the lyrics, I personally think it's a sort of social commentary on our fear mongered society, and telling people to stand up for what they believe in...it refers to both Bush, "He find first place with dirty hands He graduates man without learning. Agenda set So long ago This son's a puppet with a master The hands stand still right by his side Middle finger on the button of disaster."

and Iraq, "A sun does rise from distant lands Tears run and fires burning"
