Loverman






There's a devil waiting outside your door (How much longer?)

There's a devil waiting outside your door (How much longer?)

And he's bucking and braying and pawing at the floor (How much longer?)

And he's howling with pain, crawling up the walls (How much longer?)

There's a devil waiting outside your door (How much longer?)

And he's weak with evil and broken by the world (How much longer?)

And he's shouting your name and asking for more (How much longer?)

There's a devil waiting outside your door (How much longer?)



Loverman! Since the world began

Forever, amen, till the end of time, yeah

Take off that dress, oh

I'm coming down, yeah

I'm your loverman, yeah

'cause I am what 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 everything 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 the empires burn down

Forever and ever and ever, ever, amen

I'm your loverman

So help me, baby

So help me, baby

'cause I am what I am what I am what I am what I am

I'm your loverman



There's a devil crawling along your floor (How much longer?)

There's a devil crawling along your floor (How much longer?)

With a trembling heart, he's coming through your door (How much longer?)

With his straining sex in his jumping paw (How much longer?)

Ooh, there's a devil crawling along your floor (How much longer?)

And he's old and he's stupid and he's hungry and he's sore

And he's blind and he's lame and he's dirty and he's poor

Gimme more, gimme more, gimme more, gimme more, gimme more, gimme more (How much longer?)

There's a devil crawling along your floor



Loverman! Haha! And here I stand

Forever, amen

'cause I am what I am what I am what I am, hey

Forgive me, baby

My hands are tied

And I got no choice, no, no, no, no

I got no choice, 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



Loverman! Yeah, yeah, yeah! I got a masterplan, yeah

To take off your dress, yeah

And be your man, be your man, yeah

Seize the throne, haha

Seize the mantle

Seize the crown, yeah

'cause I am what I am what I am what I am, that I am

I'm your loverman



There's a devil laying by your side (How much longer?)

There's a devil laying by your side (How much longer?)

You might think he's asleep, but take a look at his eyes (How much longer?)

And he wants you, baby, to be his bride (How much longer?)

And there's a devil laying by your side (How much longer?)



Loverman! Loverman! Loverman! 

I'll be your loverman!

Till the end of the time!

Till the empires burn down!

Forever, amen

I'll be your loverman

I'll be your loverman

I'm your loverman

Yeah, I'm your loverman

I'm your loverman

Loverman
