A Demon Called Deception Songtext
von Grant Lee Buffalo

I′m in tight with a demon called Deception
It's alright he′s a-treatin' me quite well
I'm in tight with a demon called Deception
He′s right beside me when I fail

To whisper words like "Brother, nothin′ here is any good
See the birds they're a-droppin′ like the star Wormwood"
And all I wanted was a little patch of green
We were peasants and the cotton was our king

And in the fields how I sing a prisoner's song
While Deception whistles right along
Right along


Charlie sang for a pocket full of pills
While Deception was a-clickin′ his high heels
We're in tight playing seven one night stands
And Deception made me as I am
As I am
As I am
As I am
As I am
I′m in tight
I'm in tight
I'm in tight

Truth is I′m in tight
I barely saw the light
Just as it kicked in
Something saved my skin
Something saved my skin
