My New Job

Satan is my only friend,

He talks to me when im alone,

Sometimes he drives me round the bend,

Can I help him to re-claim his throne,

He has the face of an innocent child,

A voice that sounds so soft so mild,

Horns that have come from a giant ram,

I wonder if he got those from his mam?,

With muscles on muscles he's a scary tirant,

Makes me look small, and im a giant!,

Offers of eternal life,

Mega powers but no strife,

No struggles no bills,

No vitamin pills,

But plenty of other expensive thrills,

All free of charge on his tab,

Why cant he have been my dad?,

Plenty of goodies,

Completely no tax,

Pass me another packet of fags!,

Shall I be a minion for his army?,

Jesus Christ I must be barmy,

Or shall I stay here with my boring life,

With all my pain and all my strife,

So I take the fallen angel by the hand,

He leads me to his evil land,

I grow powerful beyond belief,

With everlasting pain relief,

Built-in armour goes to show,

That evil can be good you know,

This is not a place to come,

If you like to see the sun,

No, if thats your thing,

Then what what you should do,

Is go on vacation to Corfu,

Everyone knows the time will come,

When the devil will have the earth to run,

To mould and shape into his own,

Cause he will be sat on the throne,

You'll be a statue at his feet,

Petrified of the fate you'll meet,

Unless you are a friend of mine,

In which case you'll be drinking wine,

Eating food of a various spread,

whilst horns are sprouting from your head,

Horns like mine,

So powerful,

So divine,

Now together we shall rule,

And take this earth back to school,

To teach it how to live hour way,

My alarm beeps,

What a stressful day,

Boy am I glad to finish work,

I think my boss is the devil,

He's a reall jerk,

As I get home and open the door,

My house seems to be hotter than its been before,

Oh my GOD, my feet are sore...

And what the hells that elevator,

As the man says "down only monsieur"???

***please note I do not worship or support the worship of the devil.
