Jazz Devil

When God appeared before me I was drowning in my pool I was fifty over thirty but lookin' real cool He said a life of tedious insights and an overflowing cup Just don't cut the mustard I'm afraid you can't come up I fell way down it seemed into a bottomless pit A sign saying "Hotel Hades" was the only thing a-lit Beelzebub was hangin' but he wouldn't cut no slack He told me the big cat hath spoken I'm afraid you're going back as the Jazz Devil. Full and greedy I'm the Jazz Devil. Libido needy I'm the Jazz Devil, fly me in the mix Where you can call me agent 00666 I cruise the streets of London with just one thing on my mind Gotta passport labelled fun of the interactive kind But first I found some cats and they were howling at the moon I told 'em you play the instruments and I'll play the buffoon We broke into a sombre march called "Misery and Woe" And then we upped the tempo 'til the juice began to flow All a sudden this chick named Mimi just appeared right outta the blue Sayin' I've been searchin' for someone and now I know who Jazz Devil. Sick and racy I'm the Jazz Devil. But very tasty I'm the Jazz Devil, fly me in the mix Where you can call me agent 00666 Me and Mimi settled down in the family kinda way Won 10, 000, 000 on the lottery without no debt to pay And in the wee small hours when there was no place left to spend We'd open up each other so the days would never end Some jealous cats caught wind of this and armed up to the teeth They came in search of me and she with their pistols underneath And they caught me going down a thing that made them just see red And as Mimi hit the no return they filled me fulla lead Damn... I'm dead! When God appeared before me I was lyin' in a pool I was fifty over thirty but lookin' real cool He said a life of tedious insights and a tendency to crack Just don't cut the mustard time to head on back I fell way down I knew into a bottomless pit (Oh no here we go) The sign saying "Hotel Hades" is the only sign that's lit Beezelbub was hangin' but he never cuts no slack He says, the big cat hath spoken again you're going back as the Jazz Devil. Every mornin hail the Jazz Devil. Cos as long as days keep dawnin' I'm the Jazz Devil, fly me in the mix You know that I am agent 00666 (wow)
