About

A song about selling your soul to the devil, hence the dark, evil lyrics. Some of the vocals in the verses have evil-sounding effects on them too. This song was voted to be put on the album by Dom Howard (drummer) and Chris Wolstenholme (bassist) against Matt Bellamy (singer, guitarist, keyboardist)...

The Small Print Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Take, take all you need
And I'll compensate your greed
With broken hearts
Sell, and I'll sell your memories
For fifteen pounds per year
But just the good days

[Chorus]
Say, it'll make you insane
And it's bending the truth
You're to blame
For all the life that you'll lose and
You watch this space
And I'm going all the way
And be my slave to the grave
I'm a priest God never paid, ooh

[Verse 2]
Hope, and I hope you've seen the light
'Cause no one really cares
They're just pretending
Sell, and I'll sell your memories
For fifteen pounds per year
But you can keep the bad days

[Chorus]
Say, it'll make you insane
And I'm bending the truth
You're to blame
For all the life that you'll lose and
You watch this space
And I'm going all the way
And be my slave to the grave
I'm a priest God never paid, ooh

[Chorus]
Say, it'll make you insane
And I'm bending the truth
You're to blame
For all the life that you'll lose and
You watch this space
And I'm going all the way
And be my slave to the grave
I'm a priest God never paid, ooh
