The Ballad of Bart
Of all the tales I've heard
And all ballads that I've read
It's one scary little word
That keeps sticking in my head
And unlike any other
This sets all tales apart
I'm here to tell you brother
Of the one and only Bart
Now Bart did most his livin'
In the nineteen eighties
Because was unforgiven
Spent some of it in Hades
Since Heaven didn't need him
For his wicked little ways
The Devil chose to bleed him
For the rest of his days
From the very beginning
He was Satan's biggest pawn
Cuz he does all his sinning
At night from dusk to dawn
You'd better catch your wind
And prepare for his attack
He'll pretend to be your friend
And then stab you in the back
If you haven't heard of him
I thought that I'd remind you
So like the rest of them
Look out! He's right behind you
