When God appeared before me I was drowning in my pool
I was fifty over thirty but lookin' real cool He said a life of tedious insights and an overflowing cup Just don't cut the mustard I'm afraid you can't come up I fell way down it seemed into a bottomless pit A sign saying "Hotel Hades" was the only thing a-lit Beelzebub was hangin' but he wouldn't cut no slack He told me the big cat hath spoken I'm afraid you're going back as the Jazz Devil. Full and greedy I'm the Jazz Devil. Libido needy I'm the Jazz Devil, fly me in the mix Where you can call me agent double-oh six-six-six I cruise the streets of London with just one thing on my mind Gotta passport labelled fun of the interactive kind But first I found some cats and they were howling at the moon I told 'em you play the instruments and I'll play the buffoon We broke into a sombre march called "Misery and Woe" And then we upped the tempo 'til the juice began to flow All a sudden this chick named Mimi just appeared right outta the blue Sayin' I've been searchin' for someone and now I know who Jazz Devil. Sick and racy I'm the Jazz Devil. But very tasty I'm the Jazz Devil, fly me in the mix Where you can call me agent double-oh six-six-six Me and Mimi settled down in the family kinda way Won ten million on the lottery without no debt to pay And in the wee small hours when there was no place left to spend We'd open up each other so the days would never end Some jealous cats caught wind of this and armed up to the teeth They came in search of me and she with their pistols underneath And they caught me going down a thing that made them just see red And as Mimi hit the no return they filled me fulla lead Damn… I'm dead! When God appeared before me I was lyin' in a pool I was fifty over thirty but lookin' real cool He said a life of tedious insights and a tendency to crack Just don't cut the mustard time to head on back I fell way down I knew into a bottomless pit (Oh no here we go) The sign saying "Hotel Hades" is the only sign that's lit Beezelbub was hangin' but he never cuts no slack He says, the big cat hath spoken again you're going back as the Jazz Devil. Every mornin hail the Jazz Devil. Cos as long as days keep dawnin' I'm the Jazz Devil, fly me in the mix you know that I am agent double-oh six-six-six (wow) |

spoken words:
"Everything I tell you today I'm gonna show you it in black and white. I'm wanted for murder, kidnapping, robbery, armed robbery, conspiracy, threatening New York." "You have nothing to worry about, Mr Adamson." "You have nothing to worry about, Mr Adamson." "You have nothing to worry about, Mr Adamson." "You have nothing to worry about, Mr Adamson." (repeat) |

I feel good. I feel bad. Ain't it sad
One day it's all going to end Up in flames. Without a shame Cos I'm here. To change the total course of the world (yeah yeah) And that's what I'm singing (yeah yeah) Heat it up. Cool it down Spread it around under the cold shadow of love. I have found (I have found) What it means (what it means). To believe (to believe) And leave the world to the remains Of the day (of the day). What I say (what I say). Ain't so clear (ain't so clear) To souls who die when the decline Can't be seen (can't be seen). They're getting mean (they're getting mean) Now we're going (now we're going) To change the total course (chorus) Here am I. Love just spilled on what comes naturally. Buy and bye Love just spills and I don't mean rationally What it means. Is you're dead One to the head. If you don't know what is behind. This disguise. It's no surprise. When you think About your own every step of the way The energy pirates will get you They'll chew on your bones for breakfast They'll convince you that baby you're desperate They'll spit on your mound and keep pounding and pounding and (repeat chorus) All the time. Love just comes and I don't mean casually. Wait a while Love will come and fuck that tragedy (Cancel that shrink we're travelling up to the sky minds on the blink Or maybe the lies. Out of time) I have found. What it means. To believe That what is all going to end Up in flames. Is your heart So let it speak. And change the total course of the world |

Ok, what have we got here
Horny black boy with frisky white girl Eye each other across the room and The chemistry is unbearable and Definitely not on anyones agenda He suggests they go to someplace they won't be seen And she thinks otherwise Finally they agree to go And put up with Dunkin donuts The usual story, they fall in love Under the hail of spit they ignore All the while secretly conspiring to murder each other Hoping that will eleviate the slightly more Uncomfortable feelings that may arise in a situation like this But behind closed doors The eyes of the world becoming their wallpaper They melt into a beautiful example of a power that definitely exists And come together on a warm moonlit night In spite of themselves Ummmm, likely story |

I see myself but don't see me
Two burning eyes that don't agree While in the shades there's someone Following my every little movement from the score I call a friend who's never there Too tired for love too tired to care while in the shade there's someone Ridiculing every little moment I adore (yeah) I fold and fall down on a knee and ask a God that I can't see If maybe He or She will call on me The days they pass with no relief my head all swollen up with grief Then somethin' awaketh me from sleep I can't get loose to using you but that's what I'm a gonna do Havin' fun in heaven while you're crucified I can't get loose to using you but that's what I'm a gonna do Watching lillie's flower while your hands are tied Did you just hear what I just heard Or have I simply gone beserk Cos in the shades there's someone Laughing at my whimsical intentions to be free Two burning minds that don't agree One praying hoping desperately While in the shade there's someone Wallowing in what I know will never happen now (yeah) I crash and fall down on my knee and beg a God that I can't see If maybe He or She will call on me The days just pass with no relief my head all swollen up with grief Then somethin' awaketh me from sleep I can't get loose to using you but that's what I'm a gonna do Havin' fun in heaven while you're crucified I can't get loose to using you but that's what I'm a gonna do Watching lillie's flower while your hands are tied |
