(Original: NICK CAVE)

There´s a devil waiting outside your door
(How much longer?)
There´s a devil waiting outside your door
It is bucking and braying and pawing at the floor
And he´s howling with pain and crawling up the walls
There´s a devil waiting outside your door
He´s weak with evil and broken by the world
He´s shouting your name and he´s asking for more
There´s a devil waiting outside your door

Loverman! Since the world began
Forever, Amen Till end of time Take off that
dress 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
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
There´s a devil crawling along your floor
With a trembling heart, he´s coming through your door
With his straining sex in his jumping paw
There´s a devil crawling along your floor
And he´s old and he´s stupid and
he´s hungry and he´s sore
And he´s lame and he´s blind
and he´s dirty and he´s poor
ive him more
There´s a devil crawling along your floor

Loverman! Here I stand Forever, Amen
Cause I am what I am what I am what I am
Forgive me, baby My hands are tied
And I got no choice 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

I´ll be your loverman! I got a masterplan
To take off your dress And be your man
Seize the throne Seize the mantle
Seize the crown Cause I am what I am
What I am what I am I´m your loverman!

There´s a devil lying by your side
You might think he´s asleep
but look at his eyes
He wants you, baby, to be his bride
There´s a devil lying by your side

Loverman! Loverman!
