The Devil's Son Lyrics


I can be the one you want
I can be your best friend John
We can watch a game together
Or just talk about the weatherI can hang out at your house
Drinking beers on your couch
I will sit there throughout the day
"your fridge is empty by the way"Then I'll amuse your dog for hours
And watch your girlfriend while she showers
I will wear your favorite shirt
I will smile when you get hurt
I got issues from the past
Maybe it's the voices in my head
But sometimes
I just sit here by myself
And recall the things I've done
My parents treated me so bad
The called me the Devil's SonI'll sleep on your side of the bed
I'll wet myself and crumble bread

Watch some porn on your TV
Later touch myself, maybeI can give your girl a call
And say you don't love her at all
Say you're gay and dating Percy
And you like to beg for mercyOr I will sit next to your bed
With a gun aimed at your head
It just makes me feel alive
Yeah I do weird shit at night
Now I'm howlin' at the moon
Look what the voices made me do
But sometimes
I just sit here by myself
And recall the things I've done
My parents treated me so bad
The called me the Devil's SonI could call the cops and say you're stoned
And that you're in the house alone
With a loaded gun and a little girl
We'll be headline news around the worldMaybe someday I'll find myself
Get a shrink and get some help
Or blow a bullet through my brain
Lay on the tracks, wait for the train
Tie a rope around my neck
Maybe then the voices won't come backBut sometimes
I just sit here by myself
And recall the things I've done
My parents treated me so bad
The called me the Devil's SonBut sometimes
I just sit here by myself
And recall the things I've done
My parents treated me so bad
The called me the Devil's Son

Danny Vera (real name: Danny Polfliet, born Middelburg, The Netherlands, 31 May 1977) is a Dutch singer, musician and songwriter born, raised and based in the southern Dutch province of Zeeland.

A graduate of Tilburg's Rockacademie, Vera's music is generally classified as Americana and has been influenced by Roy Orbison, Johnny Cash, Chris Isaak and - more than anyone else - his idol, Elvis Presley.

After a spell with his rock band, Till Dawn (1999-2002), Danny Vera signed a solo record deal at Universal Music, where he released his 2003 début, For The Light In Your Eyes. Much to everyone's surprise the single My Confession hit #1 in Turkey, but in his native The Netherlands Vera was dropped by Universal due to disappointing album sales.

Vera paid for subsequent albums out of his own pocket: Hold On A While (2005, featuring another Turkish #1 single, Innocence), Ordinary Man (2007) and Pink Flamingo (2009).

None of these albums sold particularly well and as it got harder to get gigs, Danny Vera started to fear that his recording career had come to a natural ending.

It turned out differently. Holland's spectacularly popular football talkshow, 'Voetbal International' (every Monday and Friday on RTL7), landed Danny Vera and his band as its 'house band' in 2009. It was just the gig he needed. November 2013 saw the release of the fifth Danny Vera album, Distant Rumble, quite surprisingly on the esteemed indie label, Excelsior Recordings.
