[Verse 1]
We can do this all the harder way
Trade your bible for the witchcraft
Shed your body like a snake skin
'Cause you're filthy like a swamp rat
[Pre-Chorus]
One day, some day
Gonna show you the power
Drink your sickness
Like the rain down a sewer drain
[Chorus]
My mama done told me you're the devil
And the devil been suckin' on my soul
My mama done told me you're the devil
Just the devil is all
Got stench that stinks like sulfur
And blood forced through your pores
Not bad when you're numb to the horror
Gonna meet me when I'm dead and cold
[Verse 2]
You can kneel down to Baphomet
Pull the magic from his left hand
Or rely upon your faith heal
But your hope ain't gonna come back
[Pre-Chorus]
Some day, one day
In the darkest of hours
Feel your sickness
In your brain like a coup de main
[Chorus]
My mama done told me you're the devil
And the devil been suckin' on my soul
My mama done told me you're the devil
Just the devil is all
Got stench that stinks like sulfur
And blood forced through your pores
Not bad when you're numb to the horror
Gonna meet me when I'm dead and cold
[Bridge]
Fire in the heavens
Naked in the rubble
Darkness in the morning
Flying in the thunder
God will bring us under
Coughing underwater
Power's in my finger
Pig is in the main house
Laying in the shadows
Waiting for the signal
Taking down the minnow
Ripping apart the whale
Cloud is getting bigger
Night is getting longer
Days are getting colder
Bones are getting rubbery
Lay down
Lay down for the devil
Lay down
Lay down for the devil
[Guitar solo]
[Chorus]
Got stench that stinks like sulfur
And blood forced through your pores
Not bad when you're numb to the horror
Gonna meet me when I'm dead and cold
[Outro]
My mama done told me you're the devil
My mama done told me you're the devil
My mama done told me you're the devil
My mama done told me you're the devil
Just the devil is all
