(Song Lyrics)

This is the greatest and best song in the world.

Tribute.

A long time ago

Me and my brother Kyle, here...

We was hitchhiking down

A long and lonesome road.

All of a sudden

There shined a shiny demon

In the middle of the road

And he said:

"Play the best song in the world

Or I'll eat your soul" (Soul)

Well, me and Kyle

We looked at each other

And we each said:

"Okay."

And we played the first thing that came to our heads

Just so happened to be

The best song in the world

It was the best song in the world!

Look into my eyes and it's easy to see

One and one make two

Two and one make three

It was destiny

Once every hundred-thousand years or so

Where the sun doth shine and the moon doth glow

And the grass doth grow

Needless to say

The beast was stunned

Whip crack wit'ya swampy tail

And the beast was done.

He asked us:

"(snort) Be you angels?"

And we said:

"NAY! We are but men, ROCK!"

aaaah...etc.

This is not

The greatest song in the world, no.

This is just a tribute.

Couldn't remember

The greatest song in the world, no. (no!)

This is a tribute!!

Oh oh!!!

To the greatest song in the world oh lordy

It was the greatest song in the world allright

This is just the best motherfuckin song

To the greatest song in the world

[skattin]

Oh mama, Lucifer!

And the peculiar thing is this, my friend

The song we sang on that fateful night 

it didn't actually sound anything like this song

This is just a tribute.

You've gotta believe me.

And I wish you were there.

It's just a matter of opinion

Ah, fuck!

Good god! God lovin'!

I'm so surprised

To find you can't stop em!

Rich motherfucker...

allright (X3)
