man of peace

Look out your window, babe, theres a scene youd like to catch,
The band is playing 'Dixie,' a man got his hand outstretched.
Could be a thinker, could be the local priest
You know sometime Satan comes as a man of peace
He got a sweet gift of gab, he got a harmonious tongue,
Know every song of love that ever has been sung.
Good intentions can be evil,
Both hands can be full of grease.
You know that sometimes Satan comes as a man of peace.
Well, first hes in the background, then hes in the front,
Both eyes are looking like theyre on a rabbit hunt.
Nobody can see through him,
No, not even the Chief of Police.
You know that sometimes Satan come as a man of peace.
Well, he can be fascinating, he can be dull,
He can ride down Niagara Falls in the barrels of your skull.
I can smell something cooking,
I can tell theres going to be a feast.
You know that sometimes Satan comes as a man of peace.
Well, he catch you when youre hoping for a glimpse of the sun,
Catch you when your troubles feel like they weigh a ton.
He could be standing next to you,
The person that youd notice least.
I hear that sometimes Satan come as a man of peace.
Hes a great humanitarian, hes a great philanthropist,
He knows just where to touch you, honey, and how you like to be kissed.
Hell put both his arms around you,
You can feel the tender touch of the beast.
You know sometimes Satan will come as a man of peace.
Well, the howling wolf will howl tonight, the king snake will crawl,
Trees thatve stood for a thousand years suddenly will fall.
Wanna get married? Do it now,
Tomorrow all activity will cease.
You know that sometimes Satan come as a man of peace.
Somewhere Mamas weeping for her blue-eyed boy,
Shes holding them little white shoes and that little broken toy
And hes following a star,
The same one them three men followed from the East.
I hear sometimes Satan come as a man of peace.
