lyrics

Delilah 666


Ya walk around in black gauze an cop misunderstood,
Throw pork at the hippies an’ snort speed in the woods,
Ya scratch yer name in runes on yer preacher’s car hood,
An’ when the cops come to call ya dispell ‘em with a curse.

O Deliah 666 ya know not what ya do!
If bind yerself in lingerie yer gonna weave yerself into a noose!

Ya can sleep all day but ya can’t get rid of the noon,
An’ yer papa don’t understand yer allegiance to the moon,
Yer mama was a beauty but she gave her ass up for you,
So jus’ be discreet when ya leap out the window of yer room.

O Delilah 666 ya know not what ya do!
Don’t ya know so mote it be is just a fancy way of sayin screw you!

The definition of a vixen is a female fox,
A quarrelsome woman or a Frangelica on the rocks,
But babe ya aint a vixen, at best yer jus’ a tease,
Ya best perfect that mascara ‘fore yer bruisin those pale knees!

O Deliah 666 ya know not what ya do!
Can’t ya see them fishnet stockin’s make derelicts like me come
unglued!

Ya got a monster in yer pocket, a Golem in yer purse,
Frankenstein in a negligee chaufferin yer rent hearse,
Dried blood in a locket an’ a fingernail of hash,
Aleister Crowley by yer bedside next to yer dimestore Necromance.

Ya pride yerself a witch with yer rituals at nite,
An’ conjure up the legions with mail ordered candlelites,
But if ya met the Devil don’t ya know what he’d do?
He’d grab that candle bend ya over an’ put it to a better use!

O Delilah 666 don’t let them beasties brew!
When ya run out incantations they gonna turn on you!
