SERMON BOOSTER: a genuinely great song about how the devil is bad...


The series that starts this Sunday is "Pants on Fire": looking at the lies the devils tells us and the truth of God's Word. I couldn't help jamming this song from 20 some years ago as I prepped the message-it pretty on the nose-enjoy! This rocks like a big band... for Jesus!

The Devil is Bad! by the Ws

here's the lyrics...


She was walkin' in the garden one day When a snake slithered 'round her feet

"Follow me right over to this tree And I'll give you something good to eat"

"I don't know; are you sure? I don't think it is right" 

"Doesn't matter, just open your mouth And take a tasty bite"

She said to to him "I think it's a sin But boy does it look right."

He said to her "Just take my word And i promise that you'll see the light"


Why don't you  skidilly-doo cause i don't wanna see you 'round here no more

Why don't you skidilly-doo 'cause this is now and that was before


'cause you are the devil and the devil is bad (hey)

You are the devil and the devil is bad (hey)

You are the devil and the devil is bad (hey)

You are the devil and you are bad


Tempter met Him in the desert one day "Are you the Son of God?" 

"Turn these stones into wholesome bread and make your hunger stop."

Even though His hunger had grown real strong He turned and simply replied

"Man does not live on bread alone but on the Word of God"


He turned to Him, said "Worship me And the kingdoms of the world are yours."

"Away from me with your evil ways! 'Cause the Word says only God" 

Why don't you  skidilly-doo'cause i don't wanna see you 'round here no more

Why don't you skidilly-doo 'cause this is now and that was before


'cause you are the devil and the devil is bad (hey)

You are the devil and the devil is bad (hey)

You are the devil and the devil is bad (hey)

You are the devil and you are bad


She was walkin' in the garden one day When a snake slithered 'round her feet 

"Follow me right over to this tree And I'll give you something good to eat"

"I don't know; are you sure? I don't think it is right" 

"Doesn't matter, just open your mouth And take a tasty bite"


She said to to him "I think it's a sin But boy does it look right."

He said to her "Just take my word And i promise that you'll see the light"


Why don't you 'skidilly-doo cause i don't wanna see you 'round here no more

Why don't you  skidilly-doo 'cause this is now and that was before


'cause you are the devil and the devil is bad (hey)

You are the devil and the devil is bad (hey)

You are the devil and the devil is bad (hey)

You are the devil and you are bad
