lyrics

The Devil went down
To Newport town
He brought his red surfboard
To race against the Lord
It was totally rocking
It was totally rocking
It was totally rocking
It was totally rocking
Satan told his girl,
"I'm gonna ride a curl"
He caught a heinous wave
And he gave the crowd a wave
It was totally rocking
It was totally rocking
They were surfin' for souls
To the beat of rock and roll
Alright
Next came God's turn
Got a wicked sunburn
He didn't use lotion
While he was parting the ocean
It was totally rocking
It was totally rocking
It was totally rocking
It was totally rocking
God said to Satan,
"Dude, I'm sick of waitin'
In order to win
Chuck, you gotta hang ten"
It was totally rocking
It was totally rocking
Things were lookin' rad
Oh yeah
For the forces of bad
Alright
Satan went surfin'
Didn't need a board
Could not hang ten
He could only hang four
Satan had a problem
He could not compete
Satan was hindered
By his cloven feet
It was totally rocking
It was totally rocking
It was totally rocking
It was totally rocking
Go, go, Satan, go
Go, go, Satan, go
Go, go, Satan, go
Go, go, Satan, go
Go, go, go
Alright!

This is the greatest album of all time. No words can describe just how brilliant this genius magnum opus piece of art is. Every track is so perfectly placed together, are so brilliantly written and hit so hard and feel amazing in my ears. The album art is unmatched to any other, and Eyewishes is the best lemon demon song. 12/10 album. Fennec
