Devil Boy |
I slept through Easter yesterday |
right through Christmas just the same |
the priest came up to me all up in arms |
he said, «devil boy what have you done?» |
the Jesuits rolled in their tanks to my front door |
while the capuchins held a love-in on my front porch |
the augustinians kept to themselves, stuck their tongues out in a row |
they said, «devil boy, it’s off to hell you go!» |
so I’ll sit and pray for her to call me there |
and I’ll burn that bridge a 1000 times, on the cross I bear |
just to wonder if you’re listening from a soap box in the sky |
to finally realize my price, was it you or I? |
hey devil boy |
we’re going to blow you’re house in hey devil boy |
what do you think of that? |
for heaven’s sake |
it’s only been 2000 years |
and I can’t wait any longer for you |
for heaven’s sake |
I’d give away eternity |
if you would come back to me, if would come back to me if you would come back to me, if would come back to me |
