lyrics

“But who prays for Satan? Who, in eighteen centuries, has had the common humanity to pray for the one sinner that needed it most?”
Mark Twain


I have legions and minions and demons galore
Despair and anguish are all I adore
But this rabble makes terrible company
Though they do my bidding whenever I please

A castle of flames is hell to keep clean
The staff in this place are so terribly mean
The ashes of lost hope burn my eyes
I can’t tell you the last time I saw the sky

Wicked fools clamber to sell me their souls
From the Hollywood hills down to Mussel Shoals
The pious are storming the heavens with pleas
That they'll turn their hearts back to the Lord

Sycophants kneel round my bifurcated tail
Sipping sour mead and murky brown ale
Their vapid chatter echo’s in my head
Despite all the booze this party’s dead

The pious turn their eyes to the heavens above
To shower the wicked with all of God’s love
But my heart is the blackest and most lost of all
It's a wonder no one ever prays for me

Wicked fools clamber to sell me their souls
From the Hollywood hills down to Mussel Shoals
The pious are storming the heavens with pleas
That they'll turn their hearts back to the Lord

The pious are storming the heavens with pleas
That they'll turn their hearts back to the Lord
