Phlub - Straight to Hell

from SpinTunes 21 Round 1 by Spintunes

/

about

The y-axis in this case is down.

Down, down, down.

It occurred to me that this is within spitting distance of the ST20R2 "repeated word chorus" round and also would qualify for the ST17R1 "introduce yourself challenge".

Anyway, it's a doomy blues song about being a walking piece of human garbage and knowing exactly where you're going where you die. I tried not to be too subtle.

lyrics

I got a rap sheet for miles; my reputation is vile
I'm robbing you blind while I'm cracking a smile
I'll launder that money, I'll counterfeit bills
I only visit my mother just to take all her pills
I've lied and I've cheated, I've done what I've needed
To satisfy the demon that resides inside my heart
My soul's filled with hating and the devil is waiting
Cause I'm going straight to hell

Going down down down
Going straight to hell
Going down down down

My things are all stolen, my car is hotwired
And if you're hearing the sirens I started that fire
I'm a cold blooded killer, I'm murder for hire
I once shot a man just to watch him expire
Now the judge and the jury say I'm fucked in the head
I'm a menace to others, I'm better off dead
And the devil's already reserved me a bed
Cause I'm going straight to hell

Going down down down
Going straight to hell
Going down down down
