Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds lyrics : "loverman"

There's a devil waiting outside your door (How much longer?)
There's a devil waiting outside your door
It is bucking and braying and pawing at the floor

And 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 he's asking for more
There's a devil waiting outside your door



Loverman!
Since the world began

Forever, amen
Till end of time
Take off that dress

I'm coming down
I'm your loverman
Cause I am what I am what I am what I am



L is for LOVE, baby

O is for ONLY you that I do
V is for loving VIRTUALLY all that you are
E is for loving almost EVERYTHING that you do

R is for RAPE me
M is for MURDER me
A is for ANSWERING all of my prayers

N is for KNOWING your loverman's going to
be the answer to all of yours



Loverman!
Till the bitter end

While empires burn down
Forever and ever and ever and ever amen
I'm your loverman

So help me, baby
So help me
Cause I am what I am what I am what I am

I'll be your loverman!



There's a devil crawling along your floor
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's 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 lame and he's blind
and he's dirty and he's poor

Give him more
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
And I got no choice
No, I got no choice at all



I'll say it again

L is for LOVE, baby
O is for OH yes I do
V is for VIRTUE, so I ain't gonna hurt you

E is for EVEN if you want me to
R is for RENDER unto me, baby
M is for that which is MINE

A is for ANY old how, darling
N is for ANY old time


I'll be your loverman!

I got a masterplan
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 look at his eyes
He wants you, baby, to be his bride
There's a devil lying by your side



Loverman! Loverman!
