May the Devil Take the Rest

Some say there ought to be a law against me

But I do however protest

And may the Devil take the rest

Whatever they say, I disagree

I leave things unfinished

I leave without a word

Away, I won't lose another day

So long, and I wish you all the best

And may the Devil take the rest

I spend my life on nothing

I'm always startin' trouble

In the eyes of all right-thinking people

I speak whatever's on my mind

I don't want no Holy Grail, I don't go in quest

And may the Devil take the rest

I'm not so young but not so very old

I do what I will and not as I'm told

Perhaps I'll become an angel

Maybe I scream in hell

'Cause some wanna wipe out the pest

And may the Devil take the rest

That's how I put it, do you get me?

Don't get me wrong

I never walked in work from day to day

To me, one silly task is like another

I don't follow your mob

What I feel is no regret

But I know very well who I am

I make a clean breast

And may the Devil take the rest

Neither father nor lover

Neither bad nor good

Neither man nor child

Neither black nor white

Neither no nor yes

Neither stupid nor blind

Neither old nor young

Neither deaf nor dumb

Neither sane nor possessed

And may the Devil take the rest

I'm innocent of the mean and stupid

As innocent as Adam before the fall

I am innocent of crime

Innocent of murder

I'm innocent of incest

And may the Devil take the rest

What makes the world go round?

Who's right, who's wrong?

Who's mad, who's glad, who's sad?

Can you tell me something new?

Is there anything I can do for you?

Maybe some french fries with chicken and a beer?

You know, just out of interest
