Just had to stick with the devil I knew
I said I was leaving but I never could do
“Oh no!” Oh yes – although it caused stress
Things had improved so was all for the best.
Had to stick with the devil I knew
Until something better I found to pursue
“Oh yes” – oh no! I still had to go
But had to wait until my ideas did grow.
Time to break free from the devil I knew
When an angel arrived ‘twas then I knew
“Yes – yes the time had come
To leave this hell hole to go where I belonged.
The angel did guide me – I flew by her side
Away from the burning and down to Earth we arrived
She then vanished into the sky
Perhaps there is a God, finally on my side.
From the devil I once knew
Away I had now flew
Now back down to Earth
With a new aim to pursue.
