"Devil's Roof"
(written by Kristin Hersh)

I have two heads
Where's the man, he's late
One burns, one's sky
Where's the man, he's late
I'm two-headed
One free, one sticky
But is it freedom can burn?
Is sticky ever blue?
For instance...
Where is my husband?
This is what I need
Why I can't stay
God, this is the devil
Too bad he's late
I love the smell of beer
The smell of dark, the feel of dark, to feel the rug, to press the rug beneath me
A small party
But is it sinners can burn?
I hear we let them speak
For instance...
Where is my husband?
If you're my husband
I tell you something:
Dance on the devil's roof
Under a devil's moon
I don't care
And you don't dance on the devil's roof
Under a devil's moon
I don't care
And you don't dance on the devil's roof
Under a devil's moon
I don't care
And you don't move
