lyrics

Satan bring me a muse and I'll sell ya my soul
I need a hot hot mama, with a wicked pull
With a thousand seamen throwin' me over board
Make her legs long as the Tower of Babel
To collapse beneath my fiery sword

Satan I know you're not prone to negotiatin'
but won't you please listen to what I say
If this girly inspires could we try our hand at datin
If not that's okay long as my art's best of the day - what do ya say?

Satan do me a solid and cast an actress for the part
who will torture my mind and liven my heart
It takes some warm sweet honey in this cold cruel world
to resonate a body as a galaxy swirls

Oh I know that I just can't do it alone
On know this just cannot be
There's some beauty out there and it's her duty
And Satan you know which one has the key - now hear my plea!

Well this is all on the level you devilish thing
If you give me the woman, I'll throw down my wing
and spend the rest of my days down in hell dirty dancing
tell I chafe off both my cheeks
That's providing you produce the person
with the prose that speaks.
