Beck - Satan Gave Me A Taco lyrics
[Beck - Satan Gave Me A Taco lyrics]
Satan gave me a taco
And it made me really sick
The chicken was all raw and
The grease was mighty thick
The rice was all rancid and
The beans were so hard
I was getting kinda dizzy eating all the lard
There was aphids on the lettuce
And I ate every one an' after I was done
The salsa melted off my tongue
Pieces of tortilla got stuck in my throat
An' the stains on my clothes burned
A hole through my coat
My stomach was a-trembling
And I broke out in a rash
I was so dry and thirsty
And I didn't have no cash
So I went and found a hose
Tore off all my clothes turned on the water
And it shot right up my nose
Some old lady came along
And she thought I was a freak
So she beat me with a handbag
Till I could hardly speak
I was lying there naked
My body badly bruised
In a pool of my own blood
Unconscious and confused
Well, the cops came and got me
And threw me in their van
And I woke up on the ceiling
And I couldn't find my hand
They took me to the judge
His eyes a-glowing red
The courtroom was filled with
Witches and the dead
Well, the sheriff was a hellhound
With fangs and claws
The prisoners were tied up and
Chained to the walls
The air was getting thick the
Smoke was getting thicker
The judge read the verdict: said
"cut off his head!"
Well, they placed me on the altar
And they raised up the axe
My head was about to explode when
I noticed the Marshall stacks
I noticed all the smoke machines, cameras
And the lights some guy with a microphone
Running around dancing in tights
And I noticed the crew and
The band playing down below
And I realized I was in a rock video
So I went and joined the band
And I went out on tour
And I smoked a lot of heroin
And I passed out in manure
I made out with the groupies
Started fires backstage
I made a lot of money and I gave it all away
Well, the band got killed
So I started a solo career
And I won all the awards and
I drank all the beer
I opened up a taco stand
Just to smell the smell
Cooking with the devil, frying down in hell
And it made me really sick
The chicken was all raw and
The grease was mighty thick
The rice was all rancid and
The beans were so hard
I was getting kinda dizzy eating all the lard
There was aphids on the lettuce
And I ate every one an' after I was done
The salsa melted off my tongue
Pieces of tortilla got stuck in my throat
An' the stains on my clothes burned
A hole through my coat
My stomach was a-trembling
And I broke out in a rash
I was so dry and thirsty
And I didn't have no cash
So I went and found a hose
Tore off all my clothes turned on the water
And it shot right up my nose
Some old lady came along
And she thought I was a freak
So she beat me with a handbag
Till I could hardly speak
I was lying there naked
My body badly bruised
In a pool of my own blood
Unconscious and confused
Well, the cops came and got me
And threw me in their van
And I woke up on the ceiling
And I couldn't find my hand
They took me to the judge
His eyes a-glowing red
The courtroom was filled with
