Now time on this planet is limited enough
Miserable for many brutal and rough
I made my decision to be wicked and tough
I made my choice and it was nasty stuff
(The music of the devil. The music of the devil)
Since time immemorial men have acted this way
Look back in history it's as plain as day
Kings and serfs wise men and fools
You don't learn it in college you don't learn it in school
(The music of the devil)
So we listened and studied made signs and notations
Spread the word to many other nations
Took the trains dropped it off at the stations
The music of the devil was our salvation
(The music of the devil)
Well they tried to eliminate it good luck with that
Pushed it underground but it just grew back
It just grew stronger with every iteration
The music of the devil was the new sensation
(The music of the devil)
Since time immemorial men have acted this way
Look back in history it's as plain as day
When it's my funeral and the playing field is level
Send me off with the music devil
(The music of the devil)
Let's go down!
Down, down, down, down down.
Down, down.
(The music of the devil)
