Devil In Disguise--Marino

[Your Local Freak]

She said, “You think the devil has horns? Well, so did I
But I was wrong, his hair is combed and he wears a suit and tie
He’s nice, polite, he’ll catch you by surprise
A smile so bright, you’d never bat an eye”

Said she was in a hurry
That’s when she met him, Sunday, walking down the street
She dropped her bag and it fell to his feet, he got down on one knee
He handed her the purse and gave a warning to her, saying

“Miss, you know the devil has horns, he’s out tonight
Walking round downtown carrying a gun and knife
He’ll fight, you’ll die, but you’ll see him clear as light
An evil sight, you should know the warning signs”

So then he walked her to her home
He said, “A pretty girl like you can’t be alone
Because the devil, he will take all that you own
And he’ll strip you to the bone”
She thanked him twice and said, “Good night”
She checked her bag, but nothing was inside

You think the devil has horns? Well, so did I
But I was wrong, his hair is combed and he wears a suit and tie
He’s nice, polite, he’ll catch you by surprise
A smile so bright, he’s the devil in disguise

@Blake real, but in reality, the girl mentioned in the song is just saying that she’s had enough experiences to realize that the ‘devil’ (bad people/people with ill intent) are not going to be who you expect.
