The Devil’s Throat

A bad captain won't give out good orders
 A bad sideshow won't show good mutilations
 A bad emperor won't redraw good borders (Oh, no)
 A bad tailor won't make good alterations
 A bad ranger won't put out good fires
 A bad farmer won't raise what she needs
 A bad actor won't announce he retires (Oh, no)
 A bad Samaritan can't do a good deed
 That's what there is
 That's all she wrote
 My friends, you won't hear good songs flow
 From the devil's throat
 Good times weren't designed for bad children
 Good love wasn't made for them, too
 Good builders won't build a bad building (Oh, no)
 That's ain't something good builders do
 Good girls and bad boys can't make pleasure
 Good times and bad vibes won't co-exist
 Good fathers don't die good teachers won't lie
 Strong punches won't be thrown by feeble fists
 That's what there is
 That's all she wrote
 My friends, you won't hear good songs flow
 From the devil's throat
 Good praise won't leave you feeling hated
 Good health won't make you need to stay asleep
 And timely birthday wishes aren't belated (Oh, no)
 Giving freely can't be misconstrued as cheap
 Good fingers won't ignore the farthest reaches
 Dark tendencies won't bring the light around
 And hard oceans will erode the softest beaches (Oh, yeah)
 This song is not where evil can be found
 That's what there is
 That's all she wrote
 My friends, you won't hear good songs flow
 From the devil's throat
