Lyrics
Satan rejected my soul
He knows my kind
He won't be dragged down
He's seen my face around
He knows Heaven doesn't seem to be my home
So I must find somewhere else to go
I must find somewhere else to go
So take it, please
It's free
You'll never see
You'll never see
All the fun in life it's cost me
Satan rejected my soul
As low as he goes
He never quite goes this low
He's seen my face around
He knows Heaven doesn't seem to be my home
So I must find somewhere else to go
I must find somewhere else to go
So take it, please
It's really sly
Come on, come on
Come on, come on, come on
Take it, please
It's really sly
Come on, come on
Come on, come on, come on
Call me in
Haul me in
Call me in
Come on, come on
Come on, come on, come on
Pull me in
Pull me in
Call me in
Haul me in
Pull me in
Come on, come on
Come on, come on
La la lala la la
