yay pachelbel's canon progression!
Satan doesn’t think he lives in hell,
He’s just going about his day.
And that’s just fine, he doesn’t mind
People cryin’ in pain.
As long as they don’t get in the way.
He’s got a gigantic house
He doesn’t clean it anyhow
That is what the maid is for
A job she barely can afford
Which he conveniently ignores
He’s got his, he doesn’t care if you got yours.
Don’t go asking Satan for
Anything to help the poor.
If you need a healthcare plan
That doesn’t cost a whole sedan,
He says you need a better job,
Or a fifth, or don’t exist at all.
Throws his trash out in the street
Someone else will keep it clean
If he hasn’t gotten far,
Throw it back inside his car
Show him just how much he cares
Raise a little hell, it’s only fair

This is so well done!! Love the semi-dark and truth-laden lyrics juxtaposed with the breezy upbeat melody/accompaniment. Really nice!!

I think I know this Satan guy. Great last line. Lotsof great lines before that too. Like the melody as well as the classical chord progression...or more accurately...baroque
