That Handsome Devil - Charlie's Inferno Lyrics
(Here lies Charlie. You can tell it's him 'cause we put his name on the stone.)He kept his showers ice cold,used eco-friendly lightbulbsRode his bicycle to work when the gasoline price roseHe'd judge with no pretense, fish on the weekendsEach morning, get up, do the Pledge of AllegienceNever swim in the ocean, for fear of shark attacksBi-monthly get his wife a rose with a card attachedAvoiding all the little things that were hard to askHad a car crash-- cardiac arrest, died of a heart attackGolden escalator, all his friends and neighborsHuddled there and prayin' around the respiratorCatch you later, I'm off to see the man upstairsThey all look like ants from hereStars and crystal chandaliersThere was an angel at the entranceChecking off a guest listCharlie wasn't on it, and was ushered to the exitHis heart sank, he was breathlessExcuse me, sir!There must be someone you've confused me forIf I could see someone who knew me or someone in uniformI go to church on sunday, truly, usually more!Screaming at the angels while they pushed him through the door!Excuse me, sir!There must be someone you've confused me forIf I could see someone who knew me or someone in uniformI go to church on sunday, truly, usually more!Screaming at the angels while they pushed him through the door!Abandon all hope, all ye who enter.It was a horrifying sight, but sounded like a neat adventure.Far beyond the halos and the castles in the cloudsFatsos squealing, shackled with some apples in their mouthsAttention whores and padded bras hanging from extension cordsTortured with the products from their favorite catalogsHere, we buy and sell a million kinds of HellImagination is the limit to the devil's clientelleA dingy elevator, no televised debateWill save you from the Hell you paid forSorry but it's "Smell you later"Side-stepped fateWent right for the gateBut you know the devil, he loves a good chase!There was a demon at the entrance, making X's on a checklistWho would kick you in the ass when you begged him for repentanceThose tempted by the senses with the cruelest of intentionsCharlie's heart sank, he was breathlessExcuse me, sir!There must be someone you've confused me forIf I could see someone who knew me or someone in uniformI really don't belong here, I know you've heard the tune beforeScreaming at the demons while they pushed him through the door!Excuse me, sir!There must be someone you've confused me forIf I could see someone who knew me or someone in uniformI really don't belong here, I know you've heard the tune beforeScreaming at the demons while they pushed him through the door!You can run from your demons until you are exhaustedOne day you will have to stop and find out what they wantedKeep on running from those demons until you are exhaustedYou can run to those angels until you are exhaustedOne day you will have to stop and question what they wantedKeep on running to those angels until you are exhaustedExcuse me, sir!There must be someone you've confused me forIf I could see someone who knew me or someone in uniformI really don't belong here, I know you've heard the tune beforeScreaming at the demons while they pushed him through the door!Excuse me, sir!There must be someone you've confused me forIf I could see someone who knew me or someone in uniformI really don't belong here, I know you've heard the tune before
