Watched from the window with a red mosquito

i was not allowed to leave the room

i saw the sun go down, and now it's comin' up

somewhere in the time between



I was bitten must have been the devil

he was just payin' me

a little visit, a-reminding me of his presence

lettin' me know, he's a-waitin' for me...



Red man's your neighbor, call it behavior

while you're climbing up slippery hills

two steps ahead of him, punctures in your neck

hoverin' just above your bed

hoverin' just above your bed

i was bitten must have been the devil

he was just paying me

a little visit, reminding me of his presence

and lettin' me know, he's a-waitin'

he's a-waitin'…up there...yeah...



If i had known then what i now know
