> David, I loved the connection you made with the changing line in the
chorus, probably key to understanding the song, or at least *start* to.

well the artist gets religion in the last verse "They've monitored your
brain, you say
And changed you with religion" and then in the last chorus he claims he is
no longer dead or a saint - in other words "i'm only a man but turn down
your bed anyway."
at that point the lady turns the tables on him and gives him his own
line:"Well, I can be cruel
But let me be gentle with you" as if to say i bought your line before and
you may have religion now but i know you're the same pick up artist with a
new line.
peace, david
