L ook out your window baby there's a scene you'd like to catch
The band is playing "Dixie" a man got his hand outstretched.
C ould be the Fuhrer Could be the local p riest.
You know s ometimes Satan comes as a man of p eace.
H e got a sweet gift of gab he got a harmonious tongue
He knows every song of love that ever has been sung.
G ood intentions can be evil
B oth hands can be full of grease.
You know th at sometimes Satan comes as a man of pe ace.
W ell first he's in the background then he's in the front
Both eyes are looking like they're on a rabbit hunt.
N obody can see through him
No not even the Chief of Po lice.
You know th at sometimes Satan comes as a man of peace.
W ell he catch you when you're hoping for a glimpse of the sun
Catch you when your troubles feel like they weigh a ton.

The person that you'd notice l east.

W ell he can be fascinating he can be dull
He can ride down Niagara Falls in the barrels of your skull.
I can smell something cooking
I can tell there's going to be a feast.
You know t hat sometimes Satan comes as a man of peace.
H e's a great humanitarian he's a great philanthropist
He knows just where to touch you honey and how you like to be kissed.
H e'll put both his arms around you
You can feel the tender touch of the beast.
You know t hat sometimes Satan comes as a man of peace.
W ell the howling wolf will howl tonight the king snake will crawl
Trees that've stood for a thousand years suddenly will fall.
W anna get married? Do it now
Tomorrow all activity will c ease.
You know t hat sometimes Satan comes as a man of peace.
S omewhere Mama's weeping for her blue-eyed boy
She's holding them little white shoes and that little broken toy
A nd he's following a star
The same one them three men followed from the East.
I hear tha t sometimes Satan comes as a man o f peace.
