"Devil's Bane" lyrics - TORI AMOS

TORI AMOS
"Devil's Bane"

A shot of Tequila
I keep walking
Let it pass that diabolical train
Yes, I have drunk
From that Devil's Bane
And I barely survived
Barely got out with my life

[Chorus:]
"Shame Shame"
He's screamin' at me
"Shame Shame
Thinkin' I'll let you leave"

Shot of Tequila
Wash me clean
From his sermons and conspiracies
Yes, He was good
At turning me against me
Me doubting Venus
All the while he's preachin'

[Chorus:]
"Shame Shame
On your Jezebel breed
Shame Shame
You need purifying"
And I barely survived
Barely got out with my life

Next train when it comes again
If it's filled with lies and corruption
Lord, send it on
Next train when it comes again
If He's lookin' for a
A Queen of Poison
Lord, send it on

Your soul he's seekin'
All the while he's preachin'
Preachin'

[Chorus:]
Shame shame
On your Jezebel breed
Shame shame
He's screamin' at me
Shame shame
Planting your wicked seed
Bride of Christ
Darlin' you'll never be

[Outro:]
Barely got out with my life
And I keep runnin', runnin', runnin', runnin' still
And I keep runnin', runnin', runnin', runnin' still
From that Devil's Bane
Keep runnin', runnin', runnin', runnin'
