Loverman (Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds cover)

"Loverman (Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds cover)" Lyrics by Metallica

There’s a devil waiting outside your door

How much longer?

There’s a devil waiting outside your door

How much longer?

It is bucking and braying and pawing at the floor

How much longer?

And he’s howling with pain and crawling up the walls

How much longer?

There’s a devil waiting outside your door

How much longer?

And he’s weak with evil and broken by the world

How much longer?

And he’s shouting your name and he’s asking for more

How much longer?

There’s a devil waiting outside your door

How much longer?

Loverman since the world began

Forever, amen, till end of time, yeah

Take off that dress, oh, I’m coming down

I’m your loverman ’cause I am what I am what I am what I am

L is for LOVE, baby

O is for ONLY you that I do

V is for loving VIRTUALLY all that you are

E is for loving almost EVERYTHING that you do

R is for rape me

M is for murder me

A is for ANSWERING all of my prayers

N is for KNOWING your loverman’s going to be the answer to all of yours

Loverman till the bitter end

While empires burn down

Forever and ever and ever and ever, amen

I’m your loverman so help me, baby, so help me baby

’cause I am what I am what I am what I am

I’ll be your loverman

There’s a devil crawling along your floor

How much longer?

There’s a devil crawling along your floor

How much longer?

With a trembling heart, he’s coming through your door

How much longer?

With his straining sex in his jumping paw

How much longer?

There’s a devil crawling along your floor

How much longer?

And he’s old and he’s stupid and he’s hungry and he’s sore

And he’s blind and he’s lame and he’s dirty and he’s poor

Give him more, give him more, give him more…

How much longer?

There’s a devil crawling along your floor

Loverman, haha!, here I stand

Forever, amen, ’cause I am what I am what I am what I am

Hey, forgive me, baby, my hands are tied

And I got no choice, no, no, no, no, I got no choice at all

I’ll say it again:

L is for LOVE, baby

O is for O yes I do

V is for VIRTUE, so I ain’t gonna hurt you

E is for EVEN if you want me to

R is for RENDER unto me, baby

M is for that which is MINE

A is for ANY old how, darling

N is for ANY old time

Loverman, yeah, I got a masterplan, yeah

To take off your dress, yeah, and be your man, be your man

Seize the throne, seize the mantle

Seize that crown, yeah, ’cause I am what I am

What I am what I am, yes, I am, I’m your loverman

There’s a devil laying by your side

How much longer?

There’s a devil laying by your side

How much longer?

You might think he’s asleep, but take a look in his eyes

How much longer?

ANd he wants you, darling, to be his bride

How much longer?

There’s a devil laying by your side

How much longer?

Loverman! Loverman! Loverman!

I’ll be your loverman!

‘Till the end of time

‘Till the empires burn down

Forever, amen

I’ll be your loverman!

I’ll be your loverman!

I’m your loverman!

I’m your loverman!

Yeah, I’m your loverman!

I’m your loverman, loverman

Yeah, I’m your loverman

Loverman, loverman, loverman
