The Devil Made Me Do It
Gosh-darn-it! Dog-gone-it! What’s THAT all about? 
Somehow it feels better to spit out and shout
Offensive pain-remedies
(A string of obscenities)
Exorcizing demons by cussing them out...

Satellite Kid
Satellite kid
Reveal your opening bid

What price your life story?

In the morning will be settled at auction

So the more you reveal
Only strengthen our deal
With the devil made

Who for just a fist full of dollars
Purchased the face
With it the public's grace

Satellite kid
Whatever I did
Was merely the frivolity of youth 

Who thought he could handle the truth...

Prey Just Us
for surely
during all this
the devil threw down
a bolt of lightning and said

"I told you so"
but shouldn't he
be throwing up not
in disgust but banishment

but it's we
that allow it
to breed for aren't
we the ones that preach

every sun day
even on rainy days
that the devil made him
or her to do it but where did i

learn
so much
stuff about
evil but within
the confines of

a church...

False Wings
When God slept on the seventh day
He missed the worst thing that the devil made
Which is the hope for a love
From another that's never made.

I'm just a hopeless romantic
I just don't understand it
She made me think I could fly, and then watched
As I broke when I landed

So now I'm constantly smoking Marbs
To try and warm up this frozen heart
The whole was much greater
Than the sum of its broken parts....

Premium Member Evil and All His Friends
You say the devil made you do it
Yet evil and all his friends deny that
You choose the path, so is it in your mind
Where evil resides, or is it elsewhere
Like an external control, remotely possible
Evil and all his friends deny that again
You observe, absorb, digest stimuli
By the millions and you choose
What happens next
The question is, is evil and all
His friends real, or just an excuse
To justify what you choose?...

The Devil Made Me Do It
They say, to stick with the devil you know,
your inner heart's feelings,
they are never to show,

stay dilligent and strong,
throught all day long,
some say,
to put on a polker face,
no hint of emotion,
not even a trace,

The devil roars loud,
up inside of your head,
he thinks he's so proud,
as he's all dressed in red,
do we really need the devil to get through it?
or should we just say,
the devil made me do it....

Premium Member Stuck In a Rut
You say it's not fair

but why are you

in this moment

in this space

now?

 

Choices you make

is all it is

circumstance you say

and a higher power

the devil made you do it

 

the decision was yours

suck it up

take it like a man

or a woman 

 

are you here now

in leadership for

the wrong reason ?

 

burnt out you say

short vision

and blinkers on

is the trouble

more often than not

these days 

 

stuck in a rut?...

Storms In the Cosmos
When storms in the cosmos caused heaven and hell to collide
Angels and devils fell to earth and there they reside
The result of this very unusual pairing
Are human beings in case anyone is wondering or caring
Angels imbued these offspring with heavenly traits
But the Shemyaza won and sealed their hellbound Fates
                 
                *********
So is it any wonder in humans barbaric acts fit 
It's because the devil made them do it...

Uh-Huh. the Devil Made Me Do It.
He makes me do such silly things,
Terror and trouble he surely brings.
Gum in hair, and sticks in wheels,
No care for how everyone feels.

Mud pies thrown through the sky,
Embarassed my sister in front of that guy.
Things i did i will not soon forget,
Uh-huh. the devil made me do it.

Sugar in salt, and salt in sugar,
Made my brother eat that booger.
Sorry is a word unsaid,
Hand in cup equals pee in bed.

I cannot say that i hold any regret,
The devil surely made me do it....
