When the Devil Says How Do Ya Do
9.30.2023
He’ll let you down
Every time you turn around
My advice to you
Stop turning around
Keep him in your sights
But don’t make a sound
When the devil says
How do ya do
Stick the seven deadly sins
Into To-Don’t list bins
Don’t focus on life
Through his fish-eye lens
You may be at sea-level
But you’ll still get the bends
When the devil says
How do ya do
As he sashays a devilish spin
On Carly Simon’s gavotte
In a snake’s whisper
Tries to coax you to dance
Close your eyes
Plug your ears
Get the hell out of Dodge
Not a chance in hell
You still gotta chance
But you think you do
It’s a fool’s romance
When the devil says
How do ya do
And now
He’s tryin’ to say it to you
