If I Were the Devil

Lyrics

One, two, three, four
 ♪
 If I were the devil, first thing that'd I'd do
 Is I'd come off like I ever gave a damn about you
 I'd let you catch a peak of all your greatest desires
 And I'd watch the flames in your eyes burn like hellfire
 ♪
 Find all the wolves in the land
 And I'd make them fight each other
 Tooth and nail and hand to hand
 Find all the sheep, make 'em stir up the pot
 'Cause once the wolves have killed each other
 Sheep are what I want
 The devil walks among us, friends, I know this is true
 And I don't know if he's red, and I don't know if he's blue
 One thing that I know, we need to take a look around
 If I were the devil, this world would be my playground
 ♪
 As I place that thorny crown on my furrowed brow
 Well, I'd shine in all the tears of joy, yellin' from the crowd
 I'd want to brainwash some parents, and I'd have the world
 I'll be in every schoolhouse lecturin' little boys and girls
 The devil walks among us, friends, I know this is true
 And I don't know if it's me, and I don't know if it's you
 But one thing that I know, we need to take a look around
 If I were the devil, this world would be my playground
 Mmm
 Mmm, mmm, mmm
 For my final act, I'll tell you what'd it'd be
 I'd have everyone so medicated, they could never see
 My cloven hooves or horned head would be all disguised
 And the best part of it all is they'd comply with their demise
 The devil walks among us, friends, I know this is true
 And I don't know if it's me, and I don't know if it's you
 One thing that I know, we need to take a look around
 If I were the devil, this world would be my playground
 ♪
 If I were the devil, this world was mine to see
 Well, I'd witness all the atrocities, and it'd probably frighten me
 So I'd run back home with a story to tell
 I'd tell all my demon friends that I always preferred Hell
