Satan Gave Me A Taco - Beck
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 gettin' kinda dizzy eatin' all the lard There was aphids on the lettuce an' 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-tremblin' 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-glowin' 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 gettin' thick; the smoke was gettin' 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, runnin' around dancin' in tights And I noticed the crew and the band playin' 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 Cookin' with the devil; frying down in hell (spoken) Today's ah-August 4, 1982; I'm really bored There was some dead animals we played with There was a weed whacker, we stole two of them A cop car was on fire My friend scott, he was running and he slipped on a twinky And his nose was covered with blood Security helicopter shot a spotlight Somebody pulled their pants down
