The Devil and the Jinn

Love is a shoe-less charlatan

A silver-tongued huckster with a sadist’s lip-less grin

Love is the breaking of a bone

A burning cauliflower ear still throbbing on the telephone

No matter what you do

It slithers back to you

It's not enough to leave

It's not enough to be left

Love is, the Devil and the Jinn

A brazen changing problem

It's a fight you never ever win

Love is, a cruel company store

A trans-global disaster

It's a meltdown to the core

No matter what you do

It slithers back to you

It's not enough to leave

It's not enough to be left

Despite a college try

It paints a sorry sign

You piss away your life

Writing stupid songs that try to say what

Love is!

Despite a college try

It paints a sorry sign

You piss away your life

Writing stupid songs that try to say what

Love is!

And when it comes you had better let it in

Go wipe the lamb blood off your door novenas don't work anymore

And when it comes you'd better kiss its feet and beg

Please let me come with you

From "love me not" to "love me do"

Love is the Devil and the Jinn

Love is the Devil and the Jinn

Love is the Devil and the Jinn

Love is the Devil and the Jinn

Love is the Devil and the Jinn

Love is the Devil and the Jinn

Love is the Devil and the Jinn

Love is—
