Black Devil

Lyrics

[Verse 1] There he was that little man, sitting by the altar, black devil Carved in stone so dark and cold, black devil Help me, help me, 'cause I don't know what's going on [Verse 2] It was the early morning of the seventh day I had been making love to Angel in every single way The sun was peeking through a window high above That's when I saw her kiss the little devil on his head [Chorus] Black devil, if you could only speak Black devil, what do you see when you're looking at me? [Guitar Solo: Andy LaRocque] [Verse 3] There he was, that little man, fingers spread like claws, black devil I wonder what it is he knows, black devil Help me, help me, 'cause I don't know what's going on [Chorus] Black devil, if you could only speak Black devil, what do you see when you're looking at me? [Bridge] When I look around, this church on holy ground There are things within that should have never been Why two pulpits in a place like this? One facing to the East, the other to the West One of the gilded canopies have gargoyles in the sun And on the other canopy, I see demons having fun [Chorus] Black devil, if you could only speak Black devil, what do you see when you're looking at me? [Guitar Solo: Glen Drover] [Outro] Black devil always near, why don't you want me here? I can feel your hate in my soul, I wonder what it is you know Black devil, what is going on?
