Well, he's howling with pain and crawling up the walls
|
There's a devil waiting outside your door

He's weak with evil and broken by the world
|
He's shouting your name and asking for more
|
There's a devil waiting outisde your door
|
|

|
Forever, Amen Till the end of time

|
|
There's a devil crawling along your floor
|
With a trembling heart,
|
he's coming through your door
|
With his straining sex in his jumping paw
|
There'a a devil crawling along your floor
|
And he's old and he's stupid and he's hungry and he's sore
|
And he's blind and he's lame and he's dirty and he's poor
|
There's a devil crawling along your floor
|
|
Loverman! Here I stand Forever, Amen
|
Cause I am what I am what I am what I am
|
Forgive me, baby My hands are tied
|

|
To take off your dress And be your man
|
Seize the throne Seize the mantle
|
Seize the crown Cause I am what I am what I am what I am
|
I'm your Loverman!
|
|
There's a devil lying by your side
|
You might think he's asleep
|
but take a look at his eyes
|
He wants you, darling, to be his bride
|
There's a devil lying by your side
|
