Ready To Be

 

Ready To Be

 

 

Praise heaven, babe, it’s still alive

A good man’s just a great disguise

Look down deep in his eyes you’ll see

And your friends who say I’m bad

Why don’t you tell them all you’ve been had

Why don’t you tell them what I am is what they see

 

Cos I’m ready to be the devil they’ve been seeing in me

 

Look closer it’s still alight

That ain’t a twinkle that you see at night

Ask me again if I think they’re right, you’ll see

 

Cos I’m ready to be the devil they’ve been seeing in me

 

Whatever they’ve been seeing, I know him

He lives between the moments, when I’m an angel in silence

He’s climbing over the railway fence

Trying to dispose of the evidence

Trying to compose it so it all makes sense

 

Trying to get ready to be, ready to be

The devil they’ve been seeing in me
