THE SONG

Jack Satan's the greatest of gods,

And Hell is the best of abodes.

'Tis reached through the Valley of Clods

By seventy beautiful roads.

Hurrah for the Seventy Roads!

Hurrah for the clods that resound

With a hollow, thundering sound!

Hurrah for the Best of Abodes!

We'll serve him as long as we've breath--

Jack Satan, the greatest of gods.

To all of his enemies, death!--

A home in the Valley of Clods.

Hurrah for the thunder of clods

That smother the souls of his foes!

Hurrah for the spirit that goes

To dwell with the Greatest of Gods!
