Lyrics The Prince of Darkness - Mekons

The Prince of Darkness

And now he is the Prince of Darkness
He holds old friends in such high esteem
He sees a red town and wants it painted black
For the Catholic girls at Halloween
Well he said to me, «I've waited seven years
And I am a very patient man
After all those things that we’ve gone and done
I still need someone to tell»
His pleasures were a mystery to us all
You’d never see him out after dawn
In a German seaport town he takes his coffee in the red-light
And now he is the Prince of Darkness
