HAIL SATAN
I took a picture when you kicked in all his teeth
Because, as they say, a picture lasts longer
Daddy’s little princess, prim and proper all the way
Doesn’t want a thing to do with us
Says it’s not right
Refuses to be human
We say to her, “Hail Satan!”
Henderson feels guilty when these thoughts come to his head
Thinks about the consequences and what they’d think of him
Takes comfort knowing that there’s no sense of free will
“Thank Heaven for that!” he thinks and starts to hum,
“All You Need Is Love”
He knows better
Hail Satan!
Bite your tongue; head on out of San Francisco
Your friend had stayed behind; you had to hitch a ride
Said he feels most human when he strikes the other cheek
In your mind, you can hear him sing,
“All You Need Is Hate”
He knows better
Hail Satan!

CLOSING TIME
Society Sue, who didn’t know what to do,
Wandered off the edge of the world
With Calamity Jane, it’s always the same,
They never even said their goodbyes
But the Devil’s meditating on the numbers
And separating them into odd and even
And year after year
And fall after fall
Sue, she is still on my mind
Good morning to you, Miss Mary-Mid-Life-Crisis
Where do you go now from here?
Abandons ship, looks into the black light
And puts all her faith in the stars
But God is sitting in the basement
And has switched from Russian to Turkish roulette
Not for Him but for you
Just to see what happens
Though His lot may be put on the line
A treat just for you: a Punch and Judy peepshow
The professor is paving the way
Are you a 7 or 30, the Punch or the Judy?
Rock-paper-scissors: Hurrah!
And the Big Bang Operator
Has let all the chips fall where they may
Take control and create
Or do nothing and go
Where the winds have decided to take you

LULLABY
Come inside
Leave your bones by the door
Step this way through the fire
The flames will do you good
Ignore what Kinski said
For the jungle’s a terrible place
Just set your eyes to the sky
Don’t fear the blue gates
Let the Katakuris lead you
Go softly, eyes to the sky
And go forth singing
Always singing at the foot of the volcano
Go lightly
Satan has come and is welcomed with open arms
A man finds solace in a bottle
That stores up the tears of a many misunderstood night
Waits in vain for a “plus one”
Who’s been scratched off of the guest list for declaring
This Muzak is numbing
But it’s out there for the taking
It’s the virus that you download
The vodka for your loneliness
Yes, it’s out there for the taking
It’s the virus that you download
The vodka for your loneliness
Satan has come and is welcomed with open arms
Taint by number
The other side of the coin
The darkness over Celebration, Florida
The sinner and the saint
You need it
There is no one without the other
The gas mask and the suicide bomber
Go softly
There is no one without the other
So, ignore what Kinski said
For the jungle’s a terrible place
But the morning will still come
Satan has come and is welcomed with open arms
