Emily Osment
Courtney’s Song (Down There)
[Verse]
Well I’ve read every book about demons
But I figure there’s way more to learn
Down there’s a place where I know I belong
Because demons are meant to burn
[Pre-Chorus]
Is it true they eat bones with their breakfast
With maggots instead of milk?
Is it true they get dressed with chunks of dead flesh
Instead of business suits lined with silk?
[Chorus]
Down where they hang, draw and quarter
Down where they lie and cheat and torture
Then boil you alive, and rip out your spine
Somewhere down there
[Verse]
You know, all the best people end up there
Every scoundrel, dictator, and cad
I’ll be one of the guys with the Lord of the Flies
In Beelzebub’s bachelor pad
[Pre-Chorus]
Is it true they have floors for each sin there?
‘Cause I’m one depraved sinner indeed!
You see, deep down inside, I’m envy and pride
Wrath, gluttony, sloth, lust, and greed
[Chorus]
Down where it’s molten fire and brimstone
That’s where I know that I’m meant to make my home
Where all that you gain is limitless pain
Somewhere down there- oh
There!
