devil's down and out - lifeseeker lyrics

[verse 1]

hey, do you remember way back in the day
when you went to see ac/dc play?
angus was up there ringin’ the bell
and we all knew very well that we were going to h-ll
yeah, we were under his spell
our parents could hardly tell
black m-sses helped a lot of kids come out of their sh-ll
jello mold pentagram, his plan started to gel
but then he bought too many souls, and the market fell
well, things done changed and rearranged
i know it sounds strange
but i seen the devil b-mmin’ for change
with a jingle jangle, his was shaking his cup
and a cross around his neck? i said “what the f-ck?”
they got ya stuck in a rut?
the jury said, “outta luck”
gave him a piece of my mind, plus a half of a buck
i used to run with you, now you’re down on your knees?
man you should still be turning heads 360 degrees

[chorus]

but the devil’s down and out
that’s the name of the tune
people yelling boo when he walks in the room
what happened to the master? we can only -ssume
somebody took his pitchfork, and gave him a broom
yeah the devil’s down and out
that’s the name of the song
people stop and laugh as he’s walking along
he tries to fit in but he doesn’t belong
’cause even when he’s doing right, he’s still doing wrong

[verse 2]

the lowest of the low, as serpent or snake
i wonder just how much a fallen angel could take
he went out on halloween and kids said he was fake
man, even g-o-d won’t give him a break
since he couldn’t make his rent, our father played him like a sucker
sent his landlord bilbo baggins to say “beat it, mothertrucker!
you used to be bad, it was only a fad
now me and my brethren are taking over your pad!”
all those heavy metal bands never showed him respect
put him backwards on their records, never cut him a check
they were down with the devil and went to his feast
paid him a little lip service so their sales would increase
but after that, wouldn’t you know, all the phone calls ceased
seems somebody forgot the number of the beast
well, the devil just shrugged ’cause he was plum out of steam
then they turned off his heat, and ended the dream

[chorus]

[verse 3]

i said, “how bout a cup of coffee, man, what do you think?”
he looked me dead in the eye, “what i need is a drink”
went to a bar, wasn’t far, quick ride in my car
couple c-cktails later, make way for the star
i brought brimstone and flame, had many a name
you were all confused by the nature of my game
but then you cleaned me out and built prisons with the money
but you don’t know a thing about wild mountain honey!
don’t use that tone with me, you’re just one of my minions
when i want to hear from you, i’ll give you opinions
and here’s some information that will blow your lid
who do you think started christian rock? i did!
and this is on the hush, so keep it on the low
i got busted eating goats down in mexico
i said, “wow and how? that’s a h-lluva raw
you’re the dopest d-mn demon that i ever saw
and about your many names, here’s one you ain’t heard:
washed up has-been broke -ss nerd!
so excuse me for a second, gotta hit the head”
but when i went back there, i used the exit instead
now when i say i love satan, it comes from the heart
don’t playa hate like geraldo, try to tear him apart
sure he’s down and out now, but you know someday
the devil will return and there’ll be h-ll to pay!

[chorus]
