I know that these days
Devotion's a dirty word
But my baby's all I wanna do
You may talk louder
But I don't hear a word
Conviction wasted
On something that ain't true

There's an evil that runs
Through this town
I can feel it in the wind that whips my hair
I've seen some strange things as the
Years have come and passed
Strange things they come to pass
Oh way out there

It isn't in me
To look the other way
And when I look
I look right through you
You're always starving
But don't choke on the cake
When you force me
To watch you eat it, too

There's an evil that runs
Through this town
I can feel it in the wind that whips my hair
I've seen some strange things as the
Years have come and passed
Strange things they come to pass
Oh way out there

I know that these days
Devotion's a dirty word
But my baby
