ABSINTHE GREEN LYRICS

1. Give The Devil His Due

We are ever striving after what is forbidden

Outside a storm was brewing, gleaming light of dawn
I was strumming my guitar when I heard pounding on the door
I asked who's that there knocking, you disturb my daybreak calm!
He said you know exactly who I am and why I've come!
I've heard you countless times whispering my name
So it was time for me to come and set your soul aflame
I know all your desires, your every darkest wish
I'm sure you'll like it when I dive inside your mind's abyss

Oh if you knew, what's in store for you
Yeah if you knew, you'd give the devil his due

I've met many stubborn bitches but no-one quite like you
You're dead inside but I don't mind, I'll make you bend askew
I said -excuse me sir-, I like your style but I didn't catch your name
He answered it's the one you call when you need someone to blame
He poured a glass of whiskey, slowly moving close
Girl I got that magic dust to make your head explode
He licked his lips and muttered "We're off to a good start
You see, it's not so hard to dance with Satan on your back"

Close your eyes now child and give yourself to me
It's time to realise your wildest fantasy
Come closer, don't you fear I'll make you scream my name
It's all your fault my dear, you've only got yourself to blame
You've got yourself to blame
Blame
Oh if you knew, what's in store for you
Yeah if you knew, you'd give the devil his due
Oh if you knew, what's in store for you
Yeah if you knew, you'd give the devil his due
