His origins, his way of life
His motives, they're old news
No shortage of detractors
To air their noisy views
His motives, they're old news
No shortage of detractors
To air their noisy views
The man inspires a thousand lies
The lover takes his choice
Remaining coldly in control
Aware that sadly, on the whole
It is the fool who bares his soul
I'll give the man a voice
The lover takes his choice
Remaining coldly in control
Aware that sadly, on the whole
It is the fool who bares his soul
I'll give the man a voice
These are the facts of the matter
These are the names in the case
This is the story, the passion
The time and the place
These are the names in the case
This is the story, the passion
The time and the place
They're laid here before you
So judge if you can
The devil incarnate
Or a misunderstood man
The devil incarnate
Or a misunderstood man
So judge if you can
The devil incarnate
Or a misunderstood man
The devil incarnate
Or a misunderstood man
The story is a famous one
Now worshipped, now dismissed
Rehearsed and trawled for meanings
That may well not exist
The demon at the story's heart
The cuckoo in the nest
He gives so little of himself away
Which is the reason why you will stay
In case he falters, should betray
By whom or what possessed
Now worshipped, now dismissed
Rehearsed and trawled for meanings
That may well not exist
The demon at the story's heart
The cuckoo in the nest
He gives so little of himself away
Which is the reason why you will stay
In case he falters, should betray
By whom or what possessed
These are the facts of the matter
These are the names in the case
This is the story, the passion
The time and the place
These are the names in the case
This is the story, the passion
The time and the place
They're laid here before you
So judge if you can
The devil incarnate or
Or a misunderstood man
The devil incarnate
Or a misunderstood man
The devil incarnate
Misunderstood
He's the devil incarnate
No he's misunderstood
Devil incarnate
So judge if you can
The devil incarnate or
Or a misunderstood man
The devil incarnate
Or a misunderstood man
The devil incarnate
Misunderstood
He's the devil incarnate
No he's misunderstood
Devil incarnate
