Handsome Devil (John Peel Session 18/05/83)
[Verse 1]
All the streets are crammed with things
Eager to be held
I know what hands are for
And I'd like to help myself
You ask me the time
But I sense something more
And I would like to give you
What I think you're asking for

[Pre-Chorus]
You handsome devil
Oh, you handsome devil

[Chorus]
Let me get my hands
On your mammary glands
And let me get your head
On the conjugal bed
I say, I say, I say

[Verse 2]
I crack the whip
And you skip
But you deserve it
You deserve it, deserve it, deserve it
A boy in the bush
Is worth two in the hand
I think I can help you get through your exams

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, you handsome devil

[Chorus]
Oh, let me get my hands
On your mammary glands
And let me get your head
On the conjugal bed
I say, I say, I say

[Verse 3]
I crack the whip
And you skip
But you deserve it
You deserve it, deserve it, deserve it
And when we're in your scholarly room
Who will swallow whom?
And when we're in your scholarly room
Who will swallow whom?

[Pre-Chorus]
You handsome devil
[Chorus]
Oh, let me get my hands
On your mammary glands
And let me get your head
On the conjugal bed
I say, I say, I say

[Verse 4]
There's more to life than books you know
But not much more
There's more to life than books you know
But not much more
Not much more

[Outro]
Oh, you handsome devil
Oh, you handsome devil
Oh
