Lyrics

Handsome Devil (Sad Version)

[Intro]

"Sit there, that's it. That's it, you're comfy there."

[Verse 1]

Me, I was a chip of flint

Mum, you were more a smooth worn pebble

Trembling hands to his salt-beef skin

Deathbed shallow breath handsome devil

Richie are you feeling this pain?

"Granddad hasn't got long, lad, I'm coming to get you,"

Squinting from the headlights in the opposite lane

Oh, death day Alamein gone forever

[Chorus]

And if houses can die

And if memories spoil like milk

What if god's a lie?

Where is Jimmy going now if he is?

And with my head full of this

I leaned in to give him a kiss goodbye

Goodbye

Goodbye

[Verse 2]

Funeral day

Kind of wish I'd taken one last look around the house

Instead of talking to our Jay about some shit I don't give a shit about

Then we escaped

You and me, Richie, on the whiskey in your car

Drunk drive, mother crying, collapsing star

[Chorus]

And if houses can die

And if memories spoil like milk

What if god's a lie?

Where is Jimmy going now if he is?

And with my head full of this

I leaned in to give him a kiss goodbye

Goodbye

Goodbye

[intro]

Oh, I just watched the house die

I just watched the house die

I just watched the house die

I just watched the house die

I just watched the house die

I just watched the house die

I just watched the house die

I just watched the house die

I just watched the house die

I just watched my Granddad's house die
