Devil's Work

This is a poem I wrote in 2012. When I used to work at McDonald’s, the maintenance guy once spoke (rather than sang) some of the lyrics to Goddamn Devil by Ugly Kid Joe and told me we should make a song for them. Not knowing that the song already existed, I wrote up a new song with different structure and the verses set to the tune of Back In Black by AC/DC. I’m rarely able to come up with my own tunes.

​I'm the God-Damn devil
This job pleases me
I'm The God-Damn Devil
And I do it for free
I'm the God-Damn devil
This job pleases me
I'm The God-Damn Devil
And I do it for free

I don't get dental
I don't get vaca
No company car
Or 401k
There're benefits I'm told
If you do as you should
But I gotta tell ya
It ain't no fun bein' good

I'm the God-Damn devil
This job pleases me
I'm The God-Damn Devil
And I do it for free
I'm the God-Damn devil
This job pleases me
I'm The God-Damn Devil
And I do it for free

I looove my job
The art of sin
With pride on my side
I know I'll always win
I abuse the saints
I collect my souls
I play my fiddle
And I play rock 'n' roll

I'm the God-Damn devil
This job pleases me
I'm The God-Damn Devil
And I do it for free
I'm the God-Damn devil
This job pleases me
I'm The God-Damn Devil
And I do it for free

(repeat chorus twenty times or so)
