lirik lagu jam mechanics - the hook (demo)
[chorus]
it started off as devil’s advocate to challenge all my views
when every answer has a question it’s not hard to get confused
this is the devil at his handsomest so hey, what can you do?
if this clever devil’s accurate he might convince you too
[verse 1]
i found the devil down in richmond, he was fishing for some sins
he was perched up on a cloud, i found him humming gospel hymns
i says “you ain’t got a license, this is twice i’ve caught you here”
my indictments met with silence, he just beckons me, “come near”
he goes “watch the bobber in the water, down below the pole
when a sinner takes the bait, all that’s left to do is pull
you can see the sweet relief on all the faces of their victims
it’s a vicious job but i acknowledge i am quite addicted”
then the pole was in my hand and i cast my hook out far
this is how it all began, this is how my spiral started
[chorus]
off as devil’s advocate to challenge all my views
when every answer has a question it’s not hard to get confused
this is the devil at his handsomest so hey, what can you do?
if this clever devil’s accurate he might convince you too
[verse 2]
(1,2,3…)
so we’d meet up every weekend at a different fishing spot
hopping on another city, stayin’ a step ahead of god
i didn’t wanna think of consequences were i ever caught
the devil can be dangerous but no one crosses god
we pulled criminals and bitter souls, abusers, crooks, and cons
leaving every city better off before we both moved on
it was thrilling, it was chilling, it was k!lling evil souls
the methods were quite brutal but godd~mn, we got results
[verse 3]
we were packing up in amsterdam and cleaning off our hooks
i took a chance to count the bounties, now i wish i never looked
i found a kid inside his bucket
what the h~ll?! he’s barely eight!
he said “he must’ve been a sinner, after all… he took the bait”
[chorus]
it started off as devil’s advocate to challenge all my views
when every answer has a question it’s not hard to get confused
this is the devil at his handsomest so hey, what can you do?
if this clever devil’s accurate he might convince you too
[outro]
i am an angel, i took an oath
i am a danger, a savior, or both
i don’t go fishin’, not anymore
and i haven’t seen the devil in 20 years or more
so when i’m called into god’s office, told i have a new assignment
there’s a lead on where he’s fishing and it’s up to me to find him
i can’t confess that i can guess exactly where to look
now it’s up to me if i or he will end up on the hook
