The Devil In Stitches

Lyrics for The Devil In Stitches

(Hey) angels fall down without warning Cherry lipstick on their teeth and all dangerous curves She had a bullet proof mind and big pawn shop eyes And nothing you could say would get to her So don't look homeward angel from that rumble seat I can strum twice and make it all go away We'll tap every last drop until that beating stops And let the devil come join us dancing Across the yellow sun We'll run Because the devil in stitches only has his fun Performing for the chosen one We can run She was living on the edge of a knife His head was filled with restless ghosts It's so easy to love a bringer of destruction She said "Darling, I love you madly" Black tear stained cheeks behind her shattered window Prayin' for a song to save her life I had a paperback crime running straight down my spine So let the devil come join us dancing Across the yellow sun We'll run While the devil in stitches goes and has his fun Performing for the chosen one We can run Wild in the street like a formal procession of love and deceit I will carry you home like a bride from the wreckage Here's your punch drunk cupid knocked clean out of the senses I know he drove her out out to the brink That's where they stood and looked down Right then he made a decision That's where they made a division Declaring war on the weather A reckless pact with forever So come on and sing Sing hallelujah Right now
