John Dissed: Music
Devil by my Side
(John Dissed)
John Dissed
I combined two of my favorite things: Devil songs and Fuck You songs. It turned out being pretty tongue-in-cheek, but when I wrote it, I meant it. It's the title-track of my third EP.
If I were dying in a ditch
Better the devil by my side than you
If I were dying in a ditch
Better the devil by my side than you
It was just a little twitch
I briefly lost my mind
A momentary glitch
For a second I was blind
Cos if I were dying in a ditch
Better the devil by my side than you
If I was bleedin in the street
Better the devil hold my hand than you
Yeah, if I was bleedin in the street
Better the devil hold my hand than you
I only missed a beat
But it was long enough
You swept me off my feet
I guess I’m not so tough
But if I was bleedin in the street
Better the devil hold my hand than you
If I lost my breath
Better the devil kiss my lips than you
Yeah, if I lost my breath
Better the devil kiss my lips than you
At first I was impressed
This turned out so bizarre
I never would have guessed
You to be the creature that you are
And if I lost my breath
Better the devil kiss my lips than you
Always were my number one
We had our kicks
But now that this is over and done
It’s 6-6-6
If I were dying in a ditch
Better the devil by my side than you
If I were dying in a ditch
Better the devil by my side than you
It was just a little twitch
I briefly lost my mind
A momentary glitch
For a second I was blind
Cos if I were dying in a ditch
Better the devil by my side than you
