Hold on to your joy, because the devil's out to destroy.

If you're smiling you had better freeze it,
because sooner or later
the devil's going to tease it.
He might just smack it clean off your face,
then put a frown in its place.
Have you walking around in a daze,
while you're trying to
find your way out of his maze.

While you're being mesmerized,
he'll get you all hypnotized.
Then along comes the evil trance,
he'll even affect your love and romance.
Nothing will work out right,
as long as his evil is in your sight.

Welcome to the walking dead,
you'll no longer own your own head.
But you'll feel inflated and superior,
your true reflection won't show up in the mirror,
everyone else will seem inferior.
Others will be smiling and having fun,
you'll be minus none.
