lyrics

Went down to the east side
Looking for a good old friend of mine
Daddy said I don't belong here
I just told him I know

The sun beat down burning my skin
Then from the alley he appeared
Said "Hey boy, how'd you like to make a deal?"
I told him I'd be much obliged

He said just give me your soul forever
and I'll give you the mind of god 'til your body dies

With a snap of his fingers he unlocked his briefcase
In a puff of smoke, produced the contract
The letters all glowed gold
The color of my greed

He told me to sign on the line
And handed me a crimson pen
I felt my eyes dilate
As soon as I signed my name

He laughed and said pleasure doing business with ya
I told him the pleasure was all mine

Now every time I look in the mirror
I see old satan laughing back at me
In my past in my future
Even in my dreams

But I don't regret a thing
Just listen to me make this guitar sing
And I can see the good and the evil
Inside of everyone's eyes

And now I know why I can't see anything in mine
