What's with the angel

and what's with the devil

They keep swapping shoulders

and I can't tell which from which

"Will you be my Kriskindle?

Will you be my better nature?"

says one to the other

But I think they're only showing off

I caught them play poker

and I think it was the devil who said

"I'll see your heart

and I'll raise you mine"

Yea, they keep swapping shoulders

I think there's something going on

"Will you be my sweet pea?

Will you be the card up my sleeve?"

says one to the other

and this time they hold their gaze

for too long

Now they're playing poker

and this time it's the angel who says

"I'll see your heart

and I'll raise you mine"

This is the story of the angel

who played poker with the devil

in the Garden of Eden

before it all went pear shaped

They said

"I'll see your heart

and I'll raise you mine"
