Wasn't In The Bargain Lyrics

When the devil comes to take his pay
You look into his eyes and know your sorrow
Cursing that you never thought you’d see this day
You didn’t have to borrow
There won’t be dancing and you won’t get laid
You’ll never catch a pardon and you know it
Wasn’t in the bargain

Is Mephisto having a party?
Well I think that
I will go
It’s just another sister
Darting into
The picture
In between the flicker I have seen
A light
Terrible like a king
Some are lost behind each time the portal closes
Some are left to sing

You shook his hand your friends could hear you say You gotta break some eggs to make an omelette
Then your little piece of action didn’t play
Your view of life was hardened
The VCR's in pawn the curtains drawn
You ain’t sitting in no fancy garden and now you see it
Wasn’t in the bargain
Is Mephisto having a party?
Well I think that
I will go
It’s just another sister
Darting into
The picture
In between the flicker I have seen
A light
Terrible like a king
Some are lost behind each time the portal closes
Some are left to sing
