Strange Premonition

I had a strange premonition

You visit me in a vision

Hands on my thighs and your eyes on my prize, Lord

Naught could deflect this collision

I summon you in my room

I spin the lust on the loom

Oh, what a curse to be born with such thirst

Even death couldn't quite quell the doom

(No, no, no...)

Oh, sir, turn around

We haven't got much time, take me on the ground

Oh, sir, turn around

Heaven only knows what a devil I found

Devil I found, devil I found, devil I found, devil I found

I draw a circle in chalk, watch you forget how to walk

Late summer hail and a bat full of nails

Watch me split all the seeds from the stalk

I am that dark demolition

Heathen with no inhibition

Oh gods, the desire, never felt nothing higher

Got a skirt full of fresh ammunition

(No, no, no...)

Oh, sir, turn around

We haven't got much time, take me on the ground

Oh, sir, turn around

Heaven only knows what a devil I found

Devil I found, devil I found, devil I found, devil I found

I've never known such a hunger

I count to three for the thunder

Teeth on my tongue, what a thing to be young

Lord with so many harbours to plunder

I am the feast on the table

I am the beast in the fable

Coming of dawn, I'm the blood in the horn

Oh, I think there's a curse in the stable

I get so high off the power

Beauty of death in the flower

But for now let us dance and pretend there's a chance

That by dawn, they won't find you devoured

I shouldn't play with my food

I forget that you're only a dude

How sweet, little man, couldn't guess at my plans

And the darkness to which they elude

(No, no, no...)
