Subject matter[edit]
"My Man and the Devil on His Shoulder" refers to adultery.[2] The song sees Hadise suspecting her lover is cheating on her: "I know I never really caught you, caught you in the act". As the song progresses, Hadise is still unsure whether her lover is cheating on her, stating: "There must be something, something on his shirt", but is aware how her lover is "nothing but a liar". As the song ends, the final verse has Hadise singing even though she hasn't found any evidence of her lover cheating she knows he is saying: "I ain't wasting my time, I'm outta here".
