One, two, three, four If I were the devil, first thing I’d do Is whisper in your ear like I ever cared for you I’d show you visions of every dream you chase And watch the fire light up in your face I’d gather all the hunters in the land And have them tear apart their own hands I’d stir the quiet sheep into a fight While the wolves wore themselves out through the night The devil walks among us, friend, this I believe And I don’t know if he’s awake, or if he deceives But one thing I know, we need to take a look around If I were the devil, this world would be my playground I’d crown myself in thorns, shadowed and proud I’d laugh in the joy of a screaming crowd Brainwash the parents, take the schools Turn little minds into tools The devil walks among us, friend, this I believe And I don’t know if it’s me, or you, who he deceives But one thing I know, we need to take a look around If I were the devil, this world would be my playground For my final act, I’d blur the line Keep everyone medicated, numb their minds My hooves would hide beneath the guise of man And the world would follow every plan The devil walks among us, friend, this I believe And I don’t know if it’s me, or you, who he deceives One thing 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 would belong to me I’d see all the horrors, maybe it would frighten me I’d run back home with stories to tell To my demon friends in the comfort of Hell
