Things get said, your head
Will turn the words around
Slow 'em down
And when no meaning can be found
You find your mind
Has built a wall of bricks
Your mind plays tricks
Don't go out tonight
The girls will eat you up
They bark and they bite
And their boyfriends beat you up
You're tough enough
To take it all in stride
So please just stay inside
Believe in the little demons
'Cause you know, they believe in you
Believe in the little demons
Don't you tell me that it isn't true
Believe in the little demons
I can see it in the way you smile
Believe in the little demons
'Cause they're gonna be with you for a while
Rain for days on end
With no sign of sun in sight
Then one day the rain ends
And your future shines so bright
Watch out for cracks
As the sidewalk starts to expand
You mother's back is in your hands
Believe in the little demons
'Cause you know, they believe in you
Believe in the little demons
Don't you tell me that it isn't true
Believe in the little demons
I can see it in the way you smile
Believe in the little demons
'Cause they're gonna be with you for a while
Get out of the rain
I can hear momma calling
Get out of your brain, my child
Look out for the frame
TV news come a calling
Look out, look out, look out
Things get said in bed
Who knows where they come from?
The words fly out of your mouth
And your first base becomes a home run
Then you're left freezing cold
In the darkness of your room
Who the hell is this person next to you?
Believe in the little demons
'Cause you know, they believe in you
Believe in the little demons
Don't you tell me that it isn't true
Believe in the little demons
I can see it in the way you smile
Believe in the little demons
'Cause they're gonna be with you for a while
Believe in the little demons
'Cause you know, they believe in you
Believe in the little demons
Don't you tell me that it isn't true
Believe in the little demons
I can see it in the way you smile
Believe in the little demons
'Cause they're gonna be with you for a while
