You Signed a Contract

[Verse 1]
Don’t deal with the devil
A lesson that I learned well
When I meddled
Made a bet and now it’s settled
Say farewell to Elder Kettle
I’m on an adventure- indentured
Fetching debts from sketchy characters
I’m a kitchen dish that can dish it out
Quick, tip me over and pour me out
I’m short and stout and I’m rockin’ out
And I’m knockin’ out with my pinky out
And I’m counting down, but don’t count me out
When you pick me up, you won’t put me down
Got the whole toon town on lock down
And the list goes like this (oh!)

[Chorus]
Grim Matchstick, Dr. Kahls Robot
Sally Stageplay, Baroness Von Bon Bon
Hilda Berg, Rumor Honeybottoms
Cagney Carnation, and the Root Pack!
Goopy Le Grande, Djimmi the Great
Beppi the Clown, Ribby and Croaks
Phantom Express, Cala Maria
Three Mausoleums, Wally Warbles
Werner Werman, Captain Brineybeard
You signed a contract!

[Verse 2]
My name is Cuphead
Fragile, empty-headed, artful-dodger
Tricked by easy riches
Now I’m picking fights with monsters
Twenty times my size (Oh snap!)
I’m sorry that I bet it all
I’m sorry that I have to hurt you
We both signed the dotted line
Now it’s your soul or mine!
At midnight the clock will chime

[Chorus]
Grim Matchstick, Dr. Kahls Robot
Sally Stageplay, Baroness Von Bon Bon
Hilda Berg, Rumor Honeybottoms
Cagney Carnation, and the Root Pack!
Goopy Le Grande, Djimmi the Great
Beppi the Clown, Ribby and Croaks
Phantom Express, Cala Maria
Three Mausoleums, Wally Warbles
Werner Werman, Captain Brineybeard
You signed a contract!

[Verse 3]
Face to face with every loss I take
I learn the way the bosses change
But hey- two can play at this game!
Uh-huh- multiplayer aeroplanes
Oh brother, where art thou? (Mugman!)
I’m sorry that I bet it all
I’m sorry that I roped you into this
We co-signed the dotted line
Now It’s your soul and mine
Sing the chorus one more time

[Chorus, Verse 4]
Grim Matchstick, Dr. Kahls Robot
Sally Stageplay, Baroness Von Bon Bon
Hilda Berg, Rumor Honeybottoms
Cagney Carnation, and the Root Pack!
Goopy Le Grande, Djimmi the Great
Beppi the Clown, Ribby and Croaks
Phantom Express, Cala Maria
Three Mausoleums, Wally Warbles
Werner Werman, Captain Brineybeard
You signed a contract!
Grim Matchstick, Dr. Kahls Robot (My name is Mugman)
Sally Stageplay, Baroness Von Bon Bon (Fragile, empty headed, Cuphead’s brother)
Hilda Berg, Rumor Honeybottoms (Tricked by easy riches, now I’m picking fights with monsters)
Cagney Carnation, and the Root Pack! (Twenty times my size- oh snap!)
Goopy Le Grande, Djimmi the Great (I’m sorry that we bet it all)
Beppi the Clown, Ribby and Croaks (I’m sorry that we have to hurt you)
Phantom Express, Cala Maria
Three Mausoleums, Wally Warbles (We all signed the dotted line)
Werner Werman, Captain Brineybeard (Now it’s your soul or mine)
You signed a contract! (We signed a contract!)

[Verse 5]
Snake eyes, King Dice
Deck is stacked, dice are loaded- yet I still survive
Don’t deal with the devil- a lesson that I learned well
Still indebted, so I rebelled
We descended, made him cry- and now it’s settled
Say goodbye to that darn devil
Swear the story’s not embellished
I’m a dish, a bit disheveled
Relishing the bellows from my fellow fiends of Inkwell
That I let go- “Hip-hip-Hoorah” echos
Turn the page and say all’s well that ends well!
