The Great Deceiver

歌詞

Health-food faggot with a bartered bride Likes to comb his hair with a dipper ride Once had a friend with a cloven foot Once he called the tune in a chequered suit Great Deceiver In the door on the floor in a paper bag There's a shoe-shine boy with a gin-shop slag She raised him up and she called him son And she canonised the ground that he walked upon Great Deceiver Cigarettes, ice cream, figurines of the Virgin Mary Cigarettes, ice cream, figurines of the Virgin Mary Cigarettes, ice cream, Cadillacs, blue jeans In the night he's a star in the Milky Way He's a man of the world by the light of day A golden smile and a proposition And the breath of God smells of sweet sedition Great Deceiver Sing hymns, make love, get high, fall dead He'll bring his perfume to your bed He'll charm your life 'til the cold wind blows Then he'll sell your dreams to a picture show Cigarettes, ice cream, figurines of the Virgin Mary Cigarettes, ice cream, figurines of the Virgin Mary Cadillacs, blue jeans, Dixieland playing on the ferry Cigarettes, ice cream, figurines of the Virgin Mary Cadillacs, blue jeans, Dixieland playing on the ferry Cigarettes, ice cream, figurines of the Virgin Mary Cadillacs, blue jeans, Dixieland playing on the ferry Cigarettes, ice cream, figurines of the Virgin Mary Camel hair, Brylcreem, drop a glass full of antique sherry
