Lyrics
If I was the Devil, I would set the world to rights
If I was the Devil, I would set the world alight
One conflagration at a time
Just to see the pretty lights
If I was the Devil
I wouldn't need to do a fucking thing
A proclamation, united nations
Denigration, disinformation
Demonstrations, remonstration
Deportation, assassination
If I was the Devil, I would set the world to rights
If I was the Devil, I would set the world alight
One complication at a time
Will they ever see the light
Or just the fire
If I was the Devil
If I was the Devil
Sit back and watch it burn
My work here is done
If I was the Devil
If I was the Devil
My work here is done
Sit back and watch it burn
Sit back and watch the fun
Obfuscation, condemnation
Isolation, prestidigitation
Retrograde amnesia
Propagate hysteria
Rigged elections, insurrection
Revolution, de-evolution
Foreign collusion, self-delusion
Final solution
The air is poison
The land is dying, the seas are rising
Light the blue touchpaper
Sit back and watch it burn
