It was one of those things you don't quite see

I guess I knew but didn't want to believe

Shout in her hair, and steel in her eyes

Only nineteen and impossibly wise

I couldn't quite place it, I didn't quite know

But I had some wild oats and I wanted to sow

She was a feral fur and teeth

Some things you sow, you'd rather not reap

So children, you'll hear the serpents hiss

At the moment you feel

A demon's kiss

A demon's kiss, a demon's kiss

Watch out or you'll get your wish

A demon's kiss, a demon's kiss

My friends, she had a demon's kiss

A demon's kiss

They're sweet to live and dancing on MTV

Dancing in the disco, dancing for me

See the bed raise and the energy rise

Turn out the light and see the glow in her eyes

So children, you'll hear the serpents hiss

At the moment you feel

A demon's kiss

Well, it's whether awake and somehow survive

Most of her men are no longer alive

She's something you cannot have, cannot hold

Like touching your fingers on the hot coal

So children you'll hear the serpent's hiss

At the moment you feel

A demon's kiss

A demon's kiss, a demon's kiss

Watch out or you'll get your wish

A demon's kiss, a demon's kiss

My friends, she had a demon's kiss

A demon's kiss

A demon's kiss

She had a demon's kiss, a demon's kiss
