Lyrics:
Devil Inside [Version (a)]:

Devil

Here come the woman with the look in her eye
Raised on leather with flesh in her mind
Words as weapons are sharper than knives
Makes you wonder how the other half dies

Here comes the man with the look in his eyes
Fed on nothing but pride
Look at them go, look at them kick
Makes you wonder how the other half live

Devil inside
Devil inside
The devil inside
Devil inside
Every single one of us
The devil inside
Devil inside
Devil inside
Every single one of us
The devil inside
Devil inside
Devil inside
Every single one of us
The devil inside
Devil inside
Devil inside
Every single one of us
The devil inside

Here comes the world with the look in its eye
The future is uncertain but certainly slight
Look at the faces, listen to the bells
It's hard to believe we need a place called hell

Devil inside

There's a devil inside
Devil inside
Every single one of us
The devil inside
Devil inside
Devil inside
Every single one of us
The devil inside
 
The Song:

"Devil Inside" was a song from INXS' album Kick. The song is a poppy rock song, but a bit hushed and restrained.

Beck and his fourth Record Club project covered Kick in its entirety in 2010. They maintained the restraint on "Devil Inside," but removed the bouncy riff. Beck sings lead for the first time on this Record Club, and the track is based around two drummers and three electric guitars.
