Love Wakes the Devil - Momus

Love makes you dribble

And love makes for trouble

And love makes you feeble

And love makes you evil

And love wakes the devil

And love makes you trivial

Then love makes you quibble

And love makes you squabble

And that’s just the good side of love

Love is a bitch

And love makes me itch

And if I were rich

I’d no longer be rich

When that beautiful bitch

Showed up on my patch

Stealing my semen

And taking my cash

And that’s just the good side of love

Love wakes the devil

And love has no rival

For cutting survival

When you’re suicidal

And love is reliably

Unreliable

Hopelessly horrible

Tauntingly terrible

And that’s just the good side of love

Love is a toothache

And love is a pain

I’d be happy if I never saw

Love again

I’d be happy to exorcise love from my life

Cos love makes me do such

Irrational things

And love makes a fool

Out of a king

And love is a toothache

And love is a pain

I’d be happy if I never saw

Love again

Let me show you the backside of love

Why must the spring

Ruin everything

Injecting its sting

Under my skin

Making my head spin

Making me turn

Making me flirt

With every bit of skirt

Yeah I’ll show you the backside of love

Show you crimes passionel

That play merry hell

With unholy yells

In the middle of the night

Like the sound of cats rutting

The sound of bats battling

They’re all sent from hell

Yeah to get my nerves rattling

I’ll show you the backside of love

Love is a toothache

And love is a pain

I’d be happy if I never saw

Love again

I’d be happy to exorcise love from my life
