If I were the devil, first thing that’d I’d do is I’d come off like I ever gave a damn about you. I’d let you catch a peak of all your greatest desires, and I’d watch the flames in your eyes burn like hellfire
Find all the wolves in the land and I’d make them fight each other tooth and nail and hand to hand. Find all the sheep, make them stir up the pot, because once the wolves have killed each other sheep are what I want
As I place that thorny crown on my furrowed brow, well, I’d shine in all the tears of joy, yelling from the crowd. I’d want to brainwash some parents and I’d have the world, I’ll be in every schoolhouse lecturing little boys and girls
For my final act, I’ll tell you what it’d be; I’d have everyone so medicated, they could never see. My cloven hooves or horned head would be all disguised, and the best part of it all is they’d comply with their demise
If I were the devil and this world was mine to see, well, I’d witness all the atrocities and it’d probably frighten me. So I’d run back home with a story to tell, I’d tell all my demon friends that I always preferred Hell
