"The Devil I've Seen" lyrics

"The Devil I've Seen"

Susie was sweeter than Sunday choir
'Til she met the devil one night after mass
Susie was boozing, standing beside her
Was tall, dark and handsome who reached for her glass
He said "My name is", she said "Hello"
Woke up beside him missing her clothes
Sick to her stomach in fear as she froze
Satan had stolen a piece of her soul

The devil I've seen walkin' these streets
Back alley bullshit, filing his teeth
It's hard to know when the devil might show
Lookin' like an anybody everybody knows
You could be ridin', he's always hidin'
He's a sheepskin demon in disguises
You wouldn't guess and you couldn't believe, yeah
The devil I've seen
The devil I've seen
The devil I've seen
The devil I've seen
Mm, yeah

Now, Susie is quiet and keeps to herself
Forcing a smile to get through the day
Hiding the bruises she shouldn't have felt
From every moment she carries the weight
The devil he walks right over the next
Leaving you bleeding beneath, in his steps
And he don't love you like he says
Narcissistic sociopath, yeah

The devil I've seen walking these streets
Back alley bullshit, filing his teeth
It's hard to know when the devil might show
Looking like an anybody everybody knows
You could be ridin', he's always hidin'
He's a sheepskin demon in disguises
You wouldn't guess and you couldn't believe, yeah
The devil I've seen
Mmm yeah
The devil I've seen
The devil I've seen
The devil I've seen
Mmm yeah

The devil I've seen walking these streets
Back alley bullshit, filing his teeth
It's hard to know when the devil might show
Looking like an anybody everybody knows
You could be ridin', he's always hidin'
He's a sheepskin demon in disguises
You wouldn't guess and you couldn't believe, yeah
The devil I've seen
Mmm yeah
The devil I've seen
No no
The devil I've seen
The devil I've seen
Mmm no no no no
