If I Were the Devil

If I were the devil, I would be playing on my fiddle And dancing a jig, As most now don't give a fig. If I were the devil, My grin would be positively evil As I count the souls that have fallen onto my plate, And those about to capitulate If I were the devil, Sitting on a chair that can swivel, I would be trying not to laugh, At those who think they are so tough. If I were the devil, I would see no need for a will, As fresh souls now arrive hourly, And a devilish outcome more of a possibility.
