The Devil Is Six (Six Feet)
Thank you for patience while you wait
How can I be of service today?
It's sounding like you hit a bitter break
A little bad luck, and floundered in the wake
Anyone in your position quakes when this
Game of chance has gone and raised the stakes
Maybe I can help you find a way
To bear and pass this infernal weight?
I'll assume that you're familiar with
The range of services that I'm prepared to give
Never fear-the cons are utter myth
Stretch your legs and live a little bit
All you need to know is what you want
Make a list. Check a box
Run the costs. Cut your losses
Bear the load. Slough it off
Anything you think you can't afford
Can soon be yours with just a simple signature
Revel in the blessed peace of mind
That falls in line with having anything you want
But just remember when we've run our course
That you won't forget me on the other shore
Nothing's free in this world-just some lines of
Credit that you've got to pay for
You've got six feet to the flatline
Six feet to the endzone
Six feet til the flesh lies in that fresh pine
And you're dead and gone
In that six feet you can have anything
In the world you could ever want, but
You've got to be willing
Frankly, I'm surprised to see your call
Glad to see you gave a second thought
Callers often balk at modest flaws
Easily succumbing to a fear of God
Afraid to draw the lines toward the fault
When the fact of the matter hazards all
You're in a maze with a minotaur
And this ain't a place you can safely walk
Face it, the simple twist of fate's even
Hardliners stand to fall from grace
When they finally parse the law in all its cases
And stretch the leash to put it through its paces
Measure up the academic's proof
And you'll find the logic's just a clever ruse
Beg the question then contort the rules
What exactly do you have to lose?
Everything. Me, I merely let the
Puppet feel the weight of lighter strings
Get a taste for the finer things
Save the days from a spate of waste
As they say the world's a stage. What's the use in
Suffering someone else design the play?
Write the action that you long to see
Leave the messy ending up to me
All I need is your consent. Proxy for
The signature is in the fingertip
Lock it in with just a simple gesture
Lift a digit up and press the 6
But just remember when we've run our course
That you won't forget me on the other shore
Nothing's free in this world-just some lines of
Credit that you've got to pay for
Do not neglect debts that you owe
Do not forget tabs that you run
Do not get out of jail free for none
Do not expect rest for those bones
Do not pass GO. Do not pass GO
