She was walking in the garden one day
When a snake slithered round her feet
Follow me right over to this tree
And I'll give you something good to eat
I don't know, are you sure' I don't think it is right
It doesn't matter just open your mouth and take a tasty bite
She said to him I think it's a sin but boy does it look ripe
He said to her just take my word
And I promise that you'll see the light
(Chorus)
Why don't you skidilly-dee'
'Cause I don't wanna see your face round here no more
Why don't you skidilly-doo'
'Cause this is now and that was before
Cause you are the devil and the devil is bad (hey!),
you are the devil and the devil is bad (hey!),
you are the devil and the devil is bad (hey!),
you are the devil and you are bad
The tempter met him in the desert one day
Are You the Son of God'
Turn these stones into wholesome bread
And make your hunger stop
Even though his hunger had grown real strong
He turned and simply replied
Man does not live on bread alone but on the word of God.
Turn from him and worship me
And the kingdoms of the world are yours
Away from me with your evil ways
'Cause I worship and I serve only God
(Chorus)
She was walking in the garden one day
When a snake slithered round her feet
Follow me right over to this tree
And I'll give you something good to eat
I don't know, are you sure' I don't think it is right
It doesn't matter just open your mouth and take a tasty bite
She said to him I think it's a sin but boy does it look right
He said to her just take my word
And I promise that you'll see the light
