The Tempter

I am the tempter
Ruler of hell
bringer of evil
Beware!
Watch for temptation for it is there
Takes his time but loves to dare
All the people they are losing their minds
He don't care, takes all kinds.
Says love won't you take a bite
God apears says "this ain`t right"
We are damned for what evil has done
You know now the tempter has won.
I am the one
the Almighty
I'll give you the good things in life
Take me.
It is said God tempteth no man
Keep in mind you know he can
Listen to one now this we must
For we are all conceived with lust
The Tempter he taketh your brain
We know now who will reign
God says it bringes forth sin
Take my word it brings on death.
This time you have won
But what about the next
You know I´ll get you
Bastards!
When you are losing your mortal soul
It´s too late to cry to the Lord
Hear me now all you sinners.
