You look like an angel
Walk like an angel
Talk like an angel
But I got wise

You're the devil in disguise
You are the devil in disguise
You're the devil in disguise
You are the devil in disguise


You fooled me with your kisses
You cheated and you schemed
Heaven knows how you lied to me


You're the devil in disguise
You are the devil in disguise
You're the devil in disguise
You are the devil in disguise

You're the devil in disguise
You are the devil in disguise
You're the devil in disguise
You are the devil in disguise

Written by Elvis Presley - Devil In Disguise

17 Talk Like An Angel_MIX

Work all night on a drink of rum
Daylight come and me wan' go home
Stack banana 'til de mornin' come
Daylight come and me wan' go home
Come, mister tally man, tally me banana
Daylight come and me wan' go home
Come, mister tally man, tally me banana
Daylight come and me wan' go home
Lift six foot, seven foot, eight foot bunch
Daylight come and me wan' go home
Six foot, seven foot, eight foot bunch
Daylight come and me wan' go home

Daylight come and me wan' go home
Day, me say day, me say day, me say day
Daylight come and me wan' go home
A beautiful bunch o' ripe banana
Daylight come and me wan' go home
Hide the deadly black tarantula
Daylight come and me wan' go home

Adam:  What do I know bout making skins crawl? 
            What do I know about haunting at all? 
            What do I do when I hear them call? 

            We made ourselves into ghosts. 
            We made ourselves bloody and gross, 
            We made it spooky but nobody could tell. 

	(It’s time to draw a door). You thought we don’t know. 
	(White chalk on the wall) The handbook said so. 
	(It reads like a manual) For a stereo 
	(We knock three times and go). Have you seen Juno? 

CHORUS
Handbook For The Recently Deceased, I cannot believe. 
That this is happening to me. 
I did not look far ahead, I did not hear what you said, 
As we asphyxiated, 
Handbook For The Recently Deceased was here for me. 
Handbook For The Recently Deceased was right here for me.


Barbara: 	It really was a beautiful day. 
I gave my baby gave me a model train 
He gave me wallpaper and we stayed

In our lovely home on the hill, looking over town until 
The sun went down and the midnight came. 

(And by the fireplace). You said you don’t know. 
(How we got away). You said to take it slow. 
(Was the dog okay?). You said you hope so. 
(Is everything okay?). You said you didn’t know. 

CHORUS

Juno: 	Just fake til you make it. 
           Cuz you never know, when your practice makes you perfect.
           You can do it alone, you can do it alone, 
           You don’t need anyone 
           You can do it alone, so put down the phone, put down the phone...

Whatever you do, promise me you’re never gonna call that guy…


CHORUS (x2)

05 Handbook for the Recently D

Delia:		Hold his tail and pick him up as one
           	If you drop him, he’s worth at least a million
          		We can talk about it, talk about, talk about it, talk about it...
          		Or we can move on, get it done, get over it.

Movers: 	Jump in the line, Okay I believe you


Lydia:		Hold my hat while I get another shot
           	A strange little spider in a yellow teapot
           	I can’t talk about it, talk about it, talk about it, talk about it...
          		And my psychoanalyst says I probably shouldn’t 

Movers: 	Jump in the line, Okay I believe you


Charles:  	Is it Delia or Lydia or Delia’s room?
               	Can you save me a room with a tranquil view?
I was taken by the country, I thought it would be good for me,
But all I ever hear is Delia and Lydia and Delia, only….
          	
We don’t talk about it, talk about it, talk about it, talk about it...
           My family, says to me, get over it…

Movers: 	Jump in the line, Okay I believe you

Musical Interlude 

Everyone:	Is it Delia or Lydia or Delia’s room?
Is it Lydia or Delia or Lydia’s room?

Movers: 	Jump in the line, Okay I believe you

Barbara and Adam:	          Barbara here.... and Adam there
                                           It’s very queer, 
                                          To end up inside this mirror,
                                          We were just twenty five this year
                                          We were just twenty five this year.

Barbara:			In the market square, we were there
                                           We said hello to our realtor,
                                           And then we stopped on by the store,
                                           And then we stopped on by the store,

Adam:				Just before the enclosure,
                                           We saw - a dog, we can’t be sure
                                           If it survived the crash and fall
                                           Into the rushing river below...

Barbara and Adam:		We are right in the head, but dead -  
                                           We never realized the debt
                                           Of one hundred twenty five
                                          Years in the afterlife – oh why… (hold G)

          Adam:		Barbara come to the window 
                      I think something’s happening.
                     	Something horrific, something so chaotic,
                      We can’t ignore it.

Barbara:	Adam, I see it, I cannot believe it, it’s happening. 
                      Two lifetimes must we endure this?


Barbara and Adam:	Adam:				They are here!
They are here like warfare, here,
Like a bulldozer, I hear
Hammering and screwdrivers,
Hammering and screwdrivers…

Barbara and Adam:	
Barbara:	We are here, here, here, here
We are here for -
one hundred twenty five years…

My name is Lydia the daughter 
Of a real estate developer
If you follow the news in New York
He has a lucrative record
You know his name
You’re bound to wait
To meet... Mr. Deetz... Charles Deetz... Charlie Deetz              

Verse 2/Pre-chorus:
I was just seven when my mother                                               
Was taken by a cruel disease,                                                     
And anybody who remembers her,
Remembers she was always sweet.                                 
She had a smile,
That made you smile,
Until... Death’s feet... came to greet... Mrs. Deetz

Chorus:                     
And since that day                                                                                                                              Since that very day                                                                                                                                    Daddy, my whole life is a dark room
If I should stay,                                                                                                                                         If I should stay this way
Daddy, will you build me a dark room?
I myself, I am strange and unusual (x4)                      

Verse 3/Pre-chorus:
Lydia:	From the beginning she was dangerous                                              A mis-interpretor of Art.
But nonetheless my dad was curious
The monstrous sculpture of her heart 
She’s not insane 
She’s just a pain 
The new... Mrs. Deetz... Delia Deetz... she’s not a treat.
CHORUS (x2)

My name is Lydia, the daughter…
