I am the tempter
Ruler of hell
bringer of evil
beware

watch for temptation for it's there
takes his time but loves to dare.
all the people they are losing their minds
he dont care, he takes all kinds
says love wont you take a bite
God appears and says "this ain't right"
we are damned for what evil has done
You know now the tempter you has won

I am the one
the almighty
I'll give you all the good things in life
Take me

It is said that God tempeth no man
Keep in mind you know He can
listen to one now this we must
for we are all concieved in lust
The tempter he taketh your brain
we know now who will reign
God says it bringeth forth sin
Take my word it brings on death

This time you have won
but what about the next
You know I'll get you
Ahhhhh!!!!

When you are losing your mortal soul
It's too late to cry to the Lord
Hear me now all you sinners
