SLIPPERY DEVIL

Songwriter’s Story

“Slippery Devil” introduces a woman who knows her worth and makes her own choices. She can spot a rehearsed line before a prospective boyfriend even says hello, and she has no intention of letting someone else call the shots. With a knowing smile and a quick step, she makes her position clear: “Only caught if I want to be.” She moves too quickly to be held down, turning the chase into a playful test of who can keep up. She sets the rules, knows she is damn smart, and owns her sex appeal. Anyone hoping to win her attention needs to bring more than charm or a clever line. Brains and heart make it worth her time, and her warning is unmistakable: “Play me wrong, color me gone.”

The bridge reveals how she became this confident woman. Once quiet and shy, she lived with a voice she had not yet learned to use. Then one night a dream lit up her sky and gave her the courage to take back her life. That awakening becomes her battle cry, giving the chorus a deeper meaning each time it returns. Being a slippery devil means choosing her own direction, protecting her freedom, and deciding for herself when to let someone close. The song’s playful “oh oh oh” hook and bold, quick-moving lyrics carry that newfound confidence with a wink. By the final chorus, she is fully in charge of her story: love may catch her, but only because she chooses to stay.

SLIPPERY DEVIL

I’m a slippery devil, oh oh oh

Only caught if I wanna be

I move too quick, you can’t hold me

Cause I’m a slippery devil, oh oh oh

I can read your game, before you even say hello

Clocked those eyes, from across the room’s glow

Save your lines, I already know that show

If I get caught, it’s because I choose.

I’m a slippery devil, oh oh oh

Only caught if I want to be

I move too quick, you can’t hold me

Cause I’m a slippery devil, oh oh oh oh oh oh

Only caught if I want to be-eeeee.——-

I set the rules, I’m the real deal

I’m damn smart, with a lot of sex appeal

Catch me if you can, bring more than a line

Brains and heart, make it worth my time

Play me wrong, color me gone

Watch me go-go-go, go go go ———

I used to be mousy, quiet and shy

One night a dream, lit up my sky

Take back my life - now hear my battle cry

I’m a slippery devil, oh oh oh

Only caught if I want to be

I move too quick, you can’t hold me

Cause I’m a slippery devil, oh oh oh oh oh oh

Only caught if I want to be-eeeee ——

Only caught if I want to be-eeeee——

I’m a slippery devil, oh oh oh

Only caught if I want to be

I move too quick, you can’t hold me

Cause I’m a slippery devil, oh oh oh oh oh oh

Only caught if I want to be-eeeee——

Only caught if I want to be-eeeee—-
