The Devil's Due

He comes to you as man or woman,
Granting what you wish.
You fall into illusions,
Of this lifelong bliss.
But when you least expect it,
He pulls hard on the rug.
You fall into the dirt,
A grave you yourself dug.

The Devil gets his due,
And he gets it all from you.
I think you might have bitten off,
More than you can chew.
The Devil gets his due...

Women power fame and fortune,
All at his beck and call.
Makes you think you're on top,
When you're merely just a thrall.
An eternal nightmare,
Is what awaits you now,
As a sinister grin,
Curls up under his furled brow.

The Devil gets his due,
And he gets it all from you.
I think you might have bitten off,
More than you can chew.
The Devil gets his due...

Your money gives you power,
But it all goes for naught.
You're ensnared in pure evil,
And evil can't be bought.
To be let out of his sight,
You'll scream and beg and cry
Little do you know that,
You'll burn in his hellfire.

The Devil gets his due,
And he gets it all from you.
I think you might have bitten off,
More than you can chew.
The Devil gets his due.
The Devil gets his due.
The Devil gets his due...
