Merry Mephisto

[Intro]
(Ready? No
Ready? No
Ready?! No!
Ready!? Here we goooooo!)

[Verse 1]
In the back of the theater where, I hid
I felt so safe, I did
I thought I was finally free
‘Til a young man said to me;

[Chorus]
“It's me, the devil; I think we met before
You was on the altar, I was opening the door
It's me, Mephisto; your body's feeling low
Take a seat and welcome to the show”

[Verse 2]
And so from the theater I fled
To an old French lady's bed
She crawled in the covers with me
Took her skin off then she said;

[Pre-Chorus]
“Oh I don't know if I wanna be this person
But I don't got anything' else to do
So maybe I will just go and be that person
And that just might mean something to you

I always thought that you could've been that person
But what I think is seldom true
So maybe I will just have to be that person
And maybe I will make it through”

[Chorus]
Nice try! It's me, the devil; I think we met before!
You was on the altar, I was opening the door!
It's me, Mephisto; your body's feeling low
Take a seat and welcome to the show!

[Pre-Chorus]
I don't know if I wanna be this person
I don't got anything' else to do
I don't know if I wanna be that person
Nice try, nice try, nice try—

[Chorus]
Nice try!
It's me, the devil; I think we met before!
You was on the altar, I was opening the door!
It's me, Mephisto; your body's feeling low
Take a seat and welcome to the show!
