Lyrics: There’s a devil waiting outside your door... There’s a devil waiting outside your door And he is bucking and braying and pawing at the floor. Well, he’s howling with pain and crawling up the walls Oh ’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, give him more, give him more, There’s a devil waiting outside your door Loverman, Since the world began Forever Amen, untill 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 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.... There’s a devil crawling along your floor... There’s a devil crawling along your floor With a trembling heart, he’s coming through the door. With his straining sex in his jumping paw, oh ’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 lame and he’s blind. and he’s dirty and he’s poor. Give him more, give him more, give him more, give him more... Loverman, well here I stand. Forever Amen, cause I am what I am what I am what I am Forgive me hands are bound And I got no choice No, I got no choice at all I say it again, L is for LOVE and 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. Your Loverman... There’s a devil lying by your side. You might think he’s asleep, but look in his eyes, He wants you baby, to be his bride. There’s a devil lying by your side...
