Hobson's Choice

In offer here is a deal for your soul
Choice is yours so sign, in blood, on the line
I'll pay your price, do come at bells first toll
In offer here is a deal for your soul
Your happiness assured my only goal
The choice is yours only risk is your gain
In offer here is a deal for your soul
Choice is yours so sign, in blood, on the line
