A friendly wager between the two
A shake of hands and it was through
God and the devil struck a deal
How many souls could they steal
Subjects of a sinister bet
Humans they are out to get
Our fate a perverse competition
Boredom replaced by a bad decision
Who would win the most souls
With bragging rights and medals of gold?
A different kind of entertainment
To keep God and the devil’s hands from being vacant
This madness beats all rational
Where right and wrong they cannot tell
Like waking up from a demented dream
A nightmare played on a movie screen
But this is just a silly thought
A harmless notion that my mind brought
Out of boredom and lack of sleep
But what a scary thought indeed
A deal where the devil and God agree?
