I came awake
And the Devil called.
He motioned come hither,
With a long bony finger.
I rolled out of bed,
And I walked away.
I stopped at McDonalds,
For a morning brew,
And the Devil called.
Over breakfast,
As good mornings flowed,
As I pumped gas,
As I stopped,
At the school crossing.
The Devil called,
And I heard him.
I have lusted in my heart,
When the Devil called,
And I am weak.
And he motions,
Come hither.
With
A long bony finger.
But strength returned
From the blue.
And I walked away
And the Devil called.
