Tori Amos - Devil's Bane Lyrics

Tori Amos Lyrics

"Devil's Bane"

A shot of tequila
I keep walking
Let it pass that diabolical train
Yes, I have drunk
From that Devil's Bane

And I barely survived
Barely got out with my life

Shame shame
He's screamin' at me
Shame shame
Thinkin' I'll let you leave

Shot of tequila
Wash me clean
From his sermons and conspiracies
And he was good
At turning me against me

Me doubting Venus
All the while he's preachin'

Shame shame
On your Jezebel breed
Shame shame
You need purifying

And I barely survived
Barely got out with my life

Next train when it comes again
If it's filled with lies and corruption
Lord, send it on
Next train when it comes again
If He's lookin' for a
A Queen of Poison
Lord, send it on

Your soul he's seekin'
All the while he's preachin'
Preachin'
Shame shame
On your Jezebel breed
Shame shame
He's screamin' at me
Shame shame
Planting your wicked seed
Bride of Christ
Darlin' you'll never be

Barely got out with my life
And I keep runnin', runnin', runnin', runnin' still
And I keep runnin', runnin', runnin', runnin' still
From that Devil's Bane
Keep runnin', runnin', runnin', runnin'
