Loverman Lyrics

Originally performed by Nick Cave

There's a devil waiting outside your door

(How much longer)

Bucking and braying and pawing the floor

Well, he's howling with pain and

crawling up the walls

There's a devil waiting outside your door

He's weak with evil and broken by the world

He's shouting your name and asking for more

There's a devil waiting outside your door



Loverman! Since the world began

Forever, Amen Till the end of time Take off that

dress I'm coming down I'm your loverman

Cause 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



I'll be your loverman! Till the bitter end

While empires burn down Forever and ever

and ever and ever Amen I'm your Loverman

So help me, So help me

Cause I am what I am what I am what I am

I'm your Loverman!



There's a devil crawling along your floor

With a trembling heart,

he's coming through your door

With his straining sex in his jumping paw



There's a devil crawling along your floor

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

There's a devil crawling along your floor



Loverman! Here I stand Forever, Amen

Cause I am what I am what I am what I am

Forgive me, baby My hands are tied

And I got no choice No, I got no choice at all



I'll say it again



L is for LOVE, baby

O is for O 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



I'll be your Loverman! I got a masterplan

To take off your dress And be your man

Seize the throne Seize the mantle

Seize the crown Cause I am what I am

what I am what I am I'm your Loverman!



There's a devil lying by your side

You might think he's asleep

but take a look at his eyes

He wants you, darling, to be his bride

There's a devil lying by your side



Loverman! Loverman!
