She was told she had no choice
A door opened and she heard a voice
A trumpet cry as clear as sin
Set upon by the farmer’s son
Who sat himself upon the throne
As he moved about she looked behind
Saw four beasts full of eyes
She never told the elders’ lies
Deed complete he did cry
Upon his chest lay a fly
Your time has come the end is nigh
Out jumped the devil from deep insidе
Out jumped the devil
Out jumpеd the devil
Out jumped the devil from deep inside
You can always
Try to hide
But out jumped the devil from deep inside
The farmer’s son and his wife did ride
To new steads to greet new life
Tired and famished by nightfall
They bedded in the barn
Near the horse’s stall
When beasts at the door bayed for his blood
To keep away the tempest flood
He said comfort thy heart with morsel of bread
Take this #ss of mine instead
They cursed all night
Made sure he did know
When day broke they let her go
He found her crumpled
He knew she’d died
For the 12 pieces he took a knife
Cut through the skin
Cut through the hide
Out jumped the devil from deep inside
Out jumped the devil
Out jumped the devil
Out jumped the devil from deep inside
You can always
Try to hide
But out jumped the devil from deep inside
The farmer’s son found the word of the Lord
So the blood on his hands would flow no more
Preached conversations with the holy ghost
Praised to the highest who gave the most
Took the seeds he was given
Put them in the land
Lay with the lion
Lay with the lamb
Said he could heal your soul
Take away your hurt
Turn mammon into manna to show your worth
Pilgrims praised his name with erotic delight
Until there came a man clad in white
Strummed a harp with a butcher’s knife
Slashed the preacher in the side
The preacher screamed
Skin did fry
Out jumped the devil from deep inside
Out jumped the devil
Out jumped the devil
Out jumped the devil from deep inside
You can always
Try to hide
But out jumped the devil from deep inside
Well out jumped the devil
Out jumped the devil
Out jumped the devil from deep inside
You can always
Try to hide
But out jumped the devil from deep inside
