Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I wanna be where the sun don't shine
Where the birds don't sing, and the kids don't smile
They say (I saw the Devil in paradise)
I wanna be where the night is day
Where the roses die, and the thorns ain't fake
And they say (I saw the Devil with a smiling face)
[Verse 2]
I'll never go back to California (No, no, no)
I'll never go back to Hollywood (No, no, no)
Don't wanna feel no mornin' sun
Burn my shadow til the day is over and done
I'll never go back to Hollywood (No, no, no)
(No, no, no)
I'll never go back to California (No, no, no)
I'll never get old in them lonely hills (No, no)
It's like the sun got frozen in an ice-cold sky
Trapped there laughin' when the stars don't shine
I'd die than live for them dollar bills
[Verse 3]
I wanna be where the sun don't shine
Where the birds don't sing, and the kids don't smile
They say (I saw the Devil in paradise)
I wanna be where the night is day
Where the roses die, and the thorns ain't fake
And they say (I saw the Devil with a smiling face)
I wanna be where the shotguns spray
Where God gets high, and the priests don't pray
And they say (I saw the Devil with a diamond chain)
I wanna be where the sun don't shine
Where the birds don't sing, and the kids don't smile
They say (I saw the Devil in paradise)
[Verse 4]
After all that I, after all that I did for you
After all that I, after all that I did for you
[Verse 5]
Sippin' French wine with the Devil
"Pretty things slip in my ride," says the Devil
Coastin' by Hollywood sign with the Devil
Gettin' that money on time with the (Devil)
Mama said, "Don't you go sign with the Devil
Titties out, sniffin' snow white with the Devil"
Clever guys lyin' and I'm buyin', sayin' I'm special
Said he sent the check, but tide me over with the bezel
Promised me the penthouse, got me on the lowest level
Runnin' from the repo when you thought you was a rebel
How they gonna tow you while you sleepin' in the rental?
No one gonna know you better show him your potential
[Verse 6]
Pussy, coochie, cha-cha
You better show him your pussy, bitch
Before you get your ass blacklisted
[Verse 7]
After all that I, after all that I did for you
After all that I, after all that I did for you
[Verse 8]
Uh, excuse me?
(Hmm?)
Hey (Oh), how's it goin'? (Hey, what's up?)
I just want to say, you're, you're a really wonderful singer
Oh, my God, thank you so much
You know, I, I actually used to be a really big fan
