Lyrics for Song: Devil Come To Bethlehem
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Regina Spektor
Joseph and Mary are so bad
Kissin' in the park, kissin' in the park, kissin' in the park
He practices dentistry without a license
But it's alright 'cause Mary read the books and she's got his back
They're saving up for a trip to Frah-ah-ance
Gonna leave the baby with one of the in-laws
Just long enough to see the Eiffel Tower and back
Wear red scarf and booze on the airplane
The Devil come to Bethlehem
With a Bible and an alarm clock
The Devil come to Bethlehem
And he ain't afraid of the dark
Joseph and Mary are so sad
Sittin' in a park in Paris, France, reading the news, and it sure looks bad
A pile of empty postcards on their lah-ah-ap
Nothing bright to write and nothing good to send
The Devil come to Bethlehem
With a Bible and an alarm clock
The Devil come to Bethlehem
And he ain't afraid of the
dark... ... ness is less frightening than
The lightness is less frightening than
The dark
Joseph and Mary are so dead
Honest, it's been years, it's been years, it's been many, many years
All their descendants are long buried and gone
And their closest blood relative works in a Philadelphia Sears
Walking on water in his own bathtub
Turning that water to wine
The Devil come to Bethlehem
With a Bible and an alarm clock
The Devil come to Bethlehem
And he ain't afraid of the
dark... ... ness is less frightening than
The lightness is less frightening than
The darkness is less frightening than
The lightness is less frightening than
The dark
