Halliburton and the USA
Provoke world conflict every day

I went to Mass Saint Patrick Day
And overheard a woman say,
"You can't drink green beer
With the priest in here
Or we'll have the Devil to pay!"...

Is easily washed away
Like scum on a bathtub wall
Sin sticks to your DNA

Although you may feel absolved
There is a Judgment Day
When all of your offspring discover
They have the Devil to pay...

Troubles are bubbled away
As I float in the end of the day
With only the devil to pay
But later and in my own way...
