The Devil in a Dinner Jacket Lyrics

He walked in like a whispered crime

Tailored sharp and dressed to climb

A silk-tongued rogue with a well-pressed scheme

Dripping charm like a midnight dream

His smile was laced with old champagne

His eyes? The kind that spell your name

He deals in glances debts and lies

But darling I've seen sharper ties

Oh the devil in a dinner jacket

All polished charm and dirty habits

A stolen kiss a losing bet

You play along you lose no sweat!

He spins a line like fine couture

A promise stitched but never pure

I let him dance I let him grin

But love I never let him win

Mmm I know his type I've read this book

One part danger two parts look

But here's a twist he won't expect

I cash the check and leave unchecked

Oh the devil in a dinner jacket

All polished charm and dirty habits

A stolen kiss a losing bet

You play along you lose no sweat!

Mmm I know his type I've read this book

One part danger two parts look

But here's a twist he won't expect

I cash the check and leave unchecked

Oh the devil in a dinner jacket

All polished charm and dirty habits

A stolen kiss a losing bet

You play along you lose no sweat!

So drink your gin enjoy the view

But darling I see right through you

Keep your tricks your style your racket

You're just a devil in a dinner jacket
