Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds - Loverman Lyrics
Theres a devil waiting outside your door(how much longer? )Theres a devil waiting outside your doorIt is bucking and braying and pawing at the floorAnd hes howling with pain and crawling up the wallsTheres a devil waiting outside your doorHes weak with evil and broken by the worldHes shouting your name and hes asking for moreTheres a devil waiting outside your doorLoverman! since the world beganForever, amen till end of time take off thatDress Im coming down Im your lovermanCause I am what I am what I am what I amL is for love, babyO is for only you that I doV is for loving virtually all that you areE is for loving almost everything that you doR is for rape meM is for murder meA is for answering all of my prayersN is for knowing your lovermans going toBe the answer to all of yoursLoverman! till the bitter endWhile empires burn down forever and everAnd ever and ever amen Im your lovermanSo help me, baby so help meCause I am what I am what I am what I amIll be your loverman!Theres a devil crawling along your floorTheres a devil crawling along your floorWith a trembling heart, hes coming through your doorWith his straining sex in his jumping pawTheres a devil crawling along your floorAnd hes old and hes stupid andHes hungry and hes soreAnd hes lame and hes blindAnd hes dirty and hes poorGive him moreTheres a devil crawling along your floorLoverman! here I stand forever, amenCause I am what I am what I am what I amForgive me, baby my hands are tiedAnd I got no choice no, I got no choice at allIll say it againL is for love, babyO is for o yes I doV is for virtue, so I aint gonna hurt youE is for even if you want me toR is for render unto me, babyM is for that which is mineA is for any old how, darlingN is for any old timeIll be your loverman!
