The Road To Hell
A young demon stood at the crossroads
Not knowing which way to go
“I need to go to Hell” he thought
But the way I just don't know
As he looked around a map he found
Lying there on the floor
He leaped for joy this demon boy
“Now I’ll get home once more”
The map it showed the way to Heaven
Clearly it was marked
“That’s just the devils luck”
The demon boy remarked
Just then an Angel all in white
Came strolling on his way
“Kind sir show me the way to hell”
He heard the demon say
The Angel paused and thought a while
“I’m not sure that I know
But its paved with good intentions.
Maybe that’s the way to go
“I could show you the way to Heaven.
If that is what you wish
But if you want to know the road to hell
That's a different kettle of fish”
