lyrics

I was a bad bad bad man
I died and went straight to Hell
I woke up screaming at the top of my lungs
The Devil said "Hey man..."
"Could you keep it down?"

Hell is boring...

Two million years and nothing but daytime TV
I asked the Devil for something to read
He gave me a Good Housekeeping
And asked if I would like some tea

Hell is boring...
Paint only comes in shades of gray
65 and overcast every day
Hell is boring...

I said "Hey Lucifer, put on some tunes"
So he broke out his 8-track collection
He had Air Supply, Steely Dan, Bruce Springsteen and The Band
Jimmy Buffett, James Taylor, Bob Dylan and Phil Collins' Greatest Hits

Hell is boring...
Nothing to do and nothing to say
Hanging out with senators all damn day
Hell is boring...

I thought that 9 to 5 was hell...
Where it's 9 to 5, 24/7, 365 infinity

Hell is boring...
Nobody drinks and nobody fights
Solo acoustic every Thursday night
Hell is boring...

I thought that 9 to 5 was hell
I was close
