The Devil!
He begged God in heaven
To give him a break
From all of the sizzling
In the hot burning lake!
He was tired of the flames
And black blowing smoke -
The screaming and tempting -
He was sick of the joke!
He fell on his knees
And started to pray -
He asked God to change
His job and his pay!
But God was quite bored -
He had nothing to do -
And laughed at the Devil
And yelled at him too!
So the Devil rebelled -
And fled from the pain -
Leaving God up above
To go slowly insane!
