You'll never believe what I'm about to tell you, but I swear it's true
Last night I made a deal with the devil
He had me meet him at a quarter to two

He said he heard what I was up to
He said he heard I was his style
He said he's been wantin' to meet me
He said he's been coming around for a while

He told me everyone has been talkin' about all the crazy things I do
He told me everyone has been wantin' to come
And have a wild time with you

He said I got a proposition that you might be interested in
So I'ma need all your attention
And this is what he said

Man, you're gonna burn for this one
And you're gonna take a shot or two
But it'll be alright, you're gonna be just fine

Just let me come and walk with you
If you sell your soul for rock n' roll, I'm gonna give it all to you
I'm gonna make your dreams come true

So I started thinkin' about all the things he said
And it wasn't much of a decision
Here's what was goin' on in my head

I'd go to heaven for the weather, I'd go to hell for the company
And I know it'll be hot down there, but just think of all the friends I'll see
We'll sit around the fuckin' table, talkin' shit and feelin' fine

We'll take shot 'til we're unable to lift our glass another time
Right before I go to bed, I'll grab some girls to clear my head
And think about what the devil fuckin' said

Man, you're gonna burn for this one
And you're gonna take a shot or two
But it'll be alright, you're gonna be just fine

Just let me come and walk with you
If you sell your soul for rock n' roll I'm gonna give it all to you
I'm gonna make your dreams come true

I sold my soul for rock n' roll 'cause I just couldn't say no
I sold my soul for rock n' roll, so hell's where I gonna go
I sold my soul for rock n' roll

Man, you're gonna burn for this one
And you're gonna take a shot or two
But it'll be alright, you're gonna be just fine

Just let me come and walk with you
If you sell your soul for rock n' roll I'm gonna give it all to you
I'm gonna make your dreams come true

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
