There's a devil waiting outside your door
How much longer?
There's a devil waiting outside your door
How much longer?
It is bucking and braying and pawing at the floor
How much longer?
And he's howling with pain and crawling up the walls
How much longer?
There's a devil waiting outside your door
How much longer?
And he's weak with evil and broken by the world
How much longer?
And he's shouting your name and he's asking for more
How much longer?
There's a devil waiting outside your door
How much longer?

Loverman since the world began
Forever, amen, till end of time, yeah
Take off that dress, oh, I'm coming down
I'm your loverman 'cause I am what I am what I am what I am

L is for LOVE, baby
O is for ONLY you that I do
V is for loving VIRTUALLY all that you are
E is for loving almost EVERYTHING that you do
R is for rape me
M is for murder me
A is for ANSWERING all of my prayers
N is for KNOWING your loverman's going to be the answer to all of yours

Loverman till the bitter end
While empires burn down
Forever and ever and ever and ever, amen
I'm your loverman so help me, baby, so help me baby
'cause I am what I am what I am what I am
I'll be your loverman

There's a devil crawling along your floor
How much longer?
There's a devil crawling along your floor
How much longer?
With a trembling heart, he's coming through your door
How much longer?
With his straining sex in his jumping paw
How much longer?
There's a devil crawling along your floor
How much longer?
And he's old and he's stupid and he's hungry and he's sore
And he's blind and he's lame and he's dirty and he's poor
Give him more, give him more, give him more...
How much longer?
There's a devil crawling along your floor

Loverman, haha!, here I stand
Forever, amen, 'cause I am what I am what I am what I am
Hey, forgive me, baby, my hands are tied
And I got no choice, no, no, no, no, I got no choice at all

I'll say it again:
L is for LOVE, baby
O is for O yes I do
V is for VIRTUE, so I ain't gonna hurt you
E is for EVEN if you want me to
R is for RENDER unto me, baby
M is for that which is MINE
A is for ANY old how, darling
N is for ANY old time

Loverman, yeah, I got a masterplan, yeah
To take off your dress, yeah, and be your man, be your man
Seize the throne, seize the mantle
Seize that crown, yeah, 'cause I am what I am
What I am what I am, yes, I am, I'm your loverman

There's a devil laying by your side
How much longer?
There's a devil laying by your side
How much longer?
You might think he's asleep, but take a look in his eyes
How much longer?
ANd he wants you, darling, to be his bride
How much longer?
There's a devil laying by your side
How much longer?

Loverman! Loverman! Loverman!
I'll be your loverman!
'Till the end of time
'Till the empires burn down
Forever, amen
I'll be your loverman!
I'll be your loverman!
I'm your loverman!
I'm your loverman!
Yeah, I'm your loverman!
I'm your loverman, loverman
I'm your loverman
I'm your loverman
I'm your loverman
Yeah, I'm your loverman
Yes, I'm your loverman
Loverman, loverman, loverman
Forever, amen
