Abandon Hope

Come on in, no need to be afraid Time for you to join in my show It's not like any show, any man made In the end, you can guess where you'll go Tell us all your sins, share them with me What naughty guilty secrets are your crime A trip down to Hell, your reward will be I'm going to have a devil of a time No one is innocent, with me as your host Dirty tricks, oh yes, I can do it so well I will take sinners with me, oh I have to boast All of you, are coming with me, back to Hell But wait, we seem to have a special guest Doesn't matter, I've rigged every single game I will never loose, well, I'm simply the best Come play "Abandon Hope", Satan is the name Oh no, it's him, it's just not fair Why can't he just leave me alone Here he comes now, with his staff and long hair He never lets me win, it chills me to the bone I only want one day, is that too much to ask? Just let me win, let me have that desire Oh well, to send me back will be his task Time for me to return to the pits of fire

Oooh, very creative, Chris. The devil always seeks to win and you really gave him an evil methodology of persuasion. Best wishes in the contest. Love, Carolyn
