Devil Child

The Snowdroppers

One of these days I know
That I'll have to pay my debts
The past is catching up to me
I'm runnin' out of breath

This is not the earth
That gets acquired by me
The kittens go into the sack
The sack goes in the creek

A tap on my shoulder
A knock on my door
A face in the mirror
That I can't recall

They say the day
He comes to find you
You'll hear a ringin' bell
And I will, and I will, and I will

Rain cloud devil child
Brought up in a cult
It's a different kind of plan
But it gets the same result

I don't know how,
I don't know when
But it feels like something's creepin' up
Behind me again

Well, I walked through water
And I walked through mud.
And doctor says it seems to be
A sickness in the blood

You can leave the city
Just don't move up to the hills
The hunger might not kill you,
But the boredom probably will, hey

I've hit my peak
It's pretty clear
Rest of the trip
Downhill from here

They say it's time to clear the table
It's time to fit the bill
And I will, and I will, and I will.

Rain cloud devil child
Fevers and chills
They can find a cure for cancer
But the money's in the pills.

I don't know how,
I don't know when
But it feels like something's creepin' up
Behind me again

Rain cloud devil child
*something about an ocean? then ends.
