I think the song is actually sung from the point of the devil or some sort of devious character, like a crime lord or corrupt leader. He seems to plant demand for his services through psychological manipulation in verse one, waits for the victim to ask him for help with what they want in verse two, and in the rest of the song he explains how he will give you what you want but he will want something back. Pretty awesome, I like how the Hives aren't overly difficult to interpret. They never let the meaning of the song get important, it's only there if you want to hear it, and if you don't, it's just 5 guys playing kick-ass rock. Can't wait for the new album this fall! ^_^
