ESatan gave me a taco and it Bmade me really sick
AThe chicken was all raw and Ethe grease was mighty thick
The Erice was all rancid and the Bbeans were so hard
I was Agetting kinda dizzy Eeatin' all the lard
There was Eaphids on the lettuce and I Bate every one
And Aafter I was done the salsa Emelted off my tongue
EPieces of tortilla got Bstuck in my throat
And the Astains on my clothes burned a Ehole through my coat
My Estomach was tremblin' and I Bbroke out in a rash
I was so dry and Athirsty and I Edidn't have no cash
So I Ewent and found a hose Btore off all my clothes
ATurned on the water and it Eshot right up my nose
Some Eold lady came along and she Bflat out was a freak
So she Abeat me with her handbag 'til EI could hardly speak
I was Elying there naked my Bbody badly bruised
In a Apool of my own blood unEconscious and confused
When the Ecops came and got me and Bthrew me in their van
And I Awoke up on the ceiling and I Ecouldn't find my hand
They Etook me to the judge his Beyes were glowing red
The Acourtroom was filled with Ewitches and the dead
The Esheriff was a hell-hound with Bfangs and claws
The Aprisoners were tied up and Echained to the walls
The Eair was getting thick the Bsmoke was getting thicker
The Ajudge read the verdict said ECut off his head
Well they Eplaced me on the altar Bthey raised up the axe
My Ahead was about to explode when I Enoticed the Marshall stacks
I Enoticed all the smoke machines Bcameras and lights
Some Aguy with a microphone runnin' Earound dancin' in tights  and I noticed
The Ecrew and the band Bplayin' down below
And I Arealized I was in a Erock'n'roll [video]
So I Ewent and joined the band and I Bwent out on tour
And I Asmoked a lot of heroin and I Epassed out in manure
I Emade out with the groupies Bstarted fires backstage
AMade a lot of money and I Egave it all away
Well the Eband got killed so I Bstarted a solo career
And I Awon all the awards and I Edrank all the beer
I Eopened up a taco stand just to Bsmell the smell
ACookin' with the devil, Efryin' down in hell
