Handsome Devil

Jim Bianco


did you misplace your halo, sweet angel? 
did you think you'd find it here? 
where the boys are gladly lonely 
but still whisper in your ear 
with all their dirty mouths and 
all their dirty minds 
dirty martini's strangled at the spine 
you're chewing on your tongue- 
sucking on your thumb 
i can make you numb if i try 

tell me you need me so I can 
leave you here behind 
tell me you need me so I can leave. 

go to hell you handsome devil 
i know what you're thinkin' 
but the joke is laughing at you, boy, 
you're so sadly mistaken 
your face is wearing thin 
i can see right through your skin 
passed that boyish little grin that you wear 

your dirty little mouth 
your dirty little mind 
That tries so very hard not to care. 

Tell me you need me so I can leave.
