I caught a glimpse of the Devil today -
He wore a man's clothes
And he wore a man's skin
And he drove you home
Where I cannot reach,
Where I can't save you,
Where it's his domain

I caught a glimpse of the Devil today -
He wore a man's clothes
And he wore a man's skin
And he drove the car from your garage
By the house he built
That you cannot escape

I caught a glimpse of the Devil today -
He wore a man's clothes
And he wore a man's skin
And I wonder if I'd caught a glimpse of his face,
Would I have been present enough to leave?

I caught a glimpse of the Devil today -
He wore a man's clothes
And he wore a man's skin
And I felt the temptation Eve must have felt,
He tempted me to walk up to his car
And to wrap my hands around his throat,
Even though I know he could strike me dead,
I'd rather take death than leave his sins unsaid

I caught a glimpse of the Devil today -
He wore a man's clothes
And he wore a man's skin
And he wants to pretend
He's holy among men,
But I know he's rotten
And he's cruel and merciless

I caught a glimpse of the Devil today -
He wore a man's clothes
And he wore a man's skin
And I had been warned
To leave him alone,
But my fists run cold
When I hear his name
And he dares me to punch
And he dares me to bite,
Knowing he's got the upper hand
In every fight,
Knowing long as you're there
By his wretched side
None of my words can leave my mouth

I caught a glimpse of the Devil today -
He wore a man's clothes
And he wore a man's skin
And he drove you home to his domain
Where the walls are covered
With coats of pain
And peace is unknown
And love is rationed
And the windows are barred,
But nothing ever happened

I caught a glimpse of the Devil today -
He wore a man's clothes
And he wore a man's skin
And he proved to me
We're already in Hell
The moment you first spoke his name
