Out Jumped The Devil
03:56

She was told she had no choice
A door opened and she heard a voice
A trumpet cry as clear as sin
Set upon by the farmer's son
Who sat himself upon the throne
As he moved about she looked behind
Saw four beasts full of eyes
She never told the elders' lies
Deed complete he did cry
Upon his chest lay a fly
Your time has come the end is nigh
Out jumped the devil from deep inside.
Out jumped the devil
Out jumped the devil
Out jumped the devil from deep inside.
You can always
Try to hide
But out jumped the devil from deep inside.
The farmer's son and his wife did ride
To new steads to greet new life
Tired and famished by nightfall
They bedded in the barn, near the horse's stall
When beasts at the door bayed for his blood
To keep away the tempest flood
He said "Comfort thy heart with morsel of bread,
"Take this ass of mine instead."
They cursed all night, made sure he did know
When day broke they let her go
He found her crumpled, he knew she'd died
For the 12 pieces he took a knife
Cut through the skin, cut through the hide
Out jumped the devil from deep inside
Out jumped the devil
Out jumped the devil
Out jumped the devil from deep inside.
You can always
Try to hide
But out jumped the devil from deep inside.
The farmer's son found the word of the Lord
So the blood on his hands would flow no more
Preached conversations with the Holy Ghost
Praised the highest who gave the most
Took the seeds he was given, put them in the land
Lay with the lion, lay with the lamb
Said he could heal your soul, take away your hurt
Turn mammon into manna to show your worth
Pilgrims praised his name with erotic delight
Until there came a man clad in white
Strummed a harp with a butcher's knife
Slashed the preacher in the side
The preacher screamed, skin did fry
Out jumped the devil from deep inside
Out jumped the devil
Out jumped the devil
Out jumped the devil from deep inside.
You can always
Try to hide
But out jumped the devil from deep inside.

Set Me Free
02:55

Love!
It’s a shabby costume, when I put it on in the morning
I’m wandering the streets, lost all my possessions in the storm
But I was naked and you clothed me
Love!
Knocks me to my knees, steals my heart and my Stetson hat
I said “Stagger Lee put your pistol in your pants”
Cupid shot me in the arse with a .44
and I never had a chance
But I was in the Mater Public and you came to see me
Love!
Took my food and threw it on the ground
Picked it up again and shoved it in my face
Now the juice is running down and dribbling in my beard and
people are laughing all over the place
But then I was hungry and you fed me
I was in prison and you came to me and Set me free!
Love! Set me free!
I was hungry!
I was thirsty!
I was naked and homeless!
You fed me!
You gave me shelter!
You set me free!
You... you set me free
You set me free
