lirik lagu cecil kellaway - what a blessing
[birdsong]
i know it’s the devil who tempts me to crime
and to sin and corruption, and worse
but i find on resisting him time after time
that i can’t quite believe he’s a curse
for in face, i believe the reverse
what a blessing to know there’s a devil
and that i’m but a p~wn in his game
that my impulse to sin
doesn’t come from within
and so i’m not exactly to blame
what a blessing to know there’s a devil
ever leading me into some vice
and though easily led
i can hold up my head
knowing i’m fundamentally nice
what relief, oh, what blessed relief
that a thief is by nature no thief
and a liar is merely the innocent buyer
of lies from the liar~in~chief
so of course the remorse may be brief
what a blessing to know there’s a devil
and that i’m but a p~wn in his game
for i never do wrong
until he comes along
and so i’m not exactly the one
who’s to blame
it’s a fact, it’s a comforting fact
that the soul remains whole and intact
facing fraud and deceit, a forbidden sweetmeat
or some game in which cards have been stacked
with this thought, for when caught in the act
what a blessing to know there’s a devil
and that we’re not exactly to blame
for all guile and all greed
and each rotten misdeed
which might blacken sweet mankind’s good name
what a blessing to know there’s a devil
or we’d all simply die of shame
