Devil’s in Town Lyrics by Silas J. Dirge

2020

Forever I’ll remember
The scorching fires, the heat
The world glowed like ember
As demons roamed the streets
My ravenous thirst for power
When I saw the beings raid
Made me, in my finest hour
Shout ‘fiend, I need your aid’
When the devil’s in town
You’d better watch out
When the devil’s in town
Beware, there ain’t no way out
A tapping at my front door
And from the burning streets
A shrieking ‘What is it you crave for?’
I said ‘the world at my feet!’
‘Well I’ve got just the contract
Which, by handing me your soul
Will turn that wish into fact
No need to read it all’
When the devil’s in town
You’d better watch out
When the devil’s in town
Beware, there ain’t no way out
The devil stood and grinned
While I signed his pact in blood
He said ‘Did you read the small print
My poor new demigod?’
I saw the cursed footnote
When the pact further unfurled
‘Beyond all time’ and I quote
‘You’ll rule this scalded empty world’
When the devil’s in town
You’d better watch out
When the devil’s in town
Beware, there ain’t no way out
