She Devil (outake) Lyrics - Natalie Merchant

Look out she's coming at ya 

Big dark eyes like Cleopatra 

The eyes of a femme fatale 

Bet you get the ominous feeling 

A cold blooded creature in the dark 

Is stealing toward you 

You best beware, take care 

She's better than a work of fiction 

Half ingnue, half a vixen 

Your little paper doll 

But brother she's a wicked sister 

Subtle and sly, watch it mister 

And take my advice, stay away 

Or number your days 

Opiate clouds surround you 

An addiction to love has found you out 

Half out of your mind 

Fool, when I think about you 

I want to wrap my arms around you 

And tell you more than words can say 

She devil, she conquer, she devil, you want her 

You're unaware 

Tonight of the danger everywhere 

My poor little sleeping giant 

Dreaming warm and silent 

Where has your Delilah gone? 

Why don't you wake and see through 

Every way that she's deceived you 

How she moves within? 

See, everything the woman touches 

It withers and dies in her clutches 

Why should your fate be 

Any different from these? 

Oh, well I've heard about you 

Every word that's said about you 

The man in the silvery web 

He fell for the sweet persuasion 

Of a black widow spider now nothing can save him 

Now it's just a matter of time 

She devil, she conquer, she devil, you want her 

You're unaware 

Tonight of the danger everywhere 

She devil, she conquer, she devil, you want her 

You're well aware 

Tonight of the danger everywhere 

But you don't care
