i met the devil
at your party last night
he seem an upfront
kinda guy
cept i couldn’t see his face
properly
cos it was dark
& i was rushing
he start up talking
no hello
see straight through me
like i’m someone he know
& he run ‘em down
one two three
all that stuff
what he don’t believe
i said this man
you’ve just denied
feels cold out here
let’s go inside
i met the devil
i’s asleep in my bed
awakes in a dream
evil in the air
he got the three black cats
staring inside
through the windows
from outta the night
& just as the sound
of smashing glass die down
he got the perfect chuckle
i swivel round
the devil he dress
in a sheepskin coat
hand on the door
about to go
& just for a second
we keep looking like that
me & my neighbour
from down the road
