Say farewell, g'night, sonny JimIn your defenseless, winning smileWhat do you hope to win?And bliss face down, defendedWell, now stoned demon JohnThere ain't no town the boy cannot belongWhy did you come hereIs it to excavate all your sins, boil within?Slaughter like the daughter of the devil you send meI have to deal, you called me hereCan't say that you were juiced the nightThat you were introduced to demon JohnGonna take him with you when you goDance down slow, oh, way downYou cannot escape the bar-side angel dissectorYou undo your life with too much cocoon, who's your protector?Dark as the city where the white girls walk byDown below your eyes, just like firefliesYou call me here, come on here, follow me dearPast cascades of rage and fear, you called me hereCouldn't say that you had been juicedThe time that you were introduced to demon JohnWell, you knew you had to want to goDance down slow by the light of the sunMurder comes today or tonightBetter get yourself together and transcend itA burst of light blaze stars into meWhile the love breaks through here and nowSo murder by the light of the sunPlease, don't get too close to meYou said you are for real, it's not pretendAll memories stolen, know this for yourselfHow'd you like to be the happiest man in the world?Behind the weathered field hands whose blistered paws harvest cutFor wedding clothes they'll never wearMarching down a road that was never thereIt takes place on a sunlit lace and the backbone brokenPlease bring us light, demon JohnYou, demon John, take him with you when you go
