Tribute

Lyrics

Tenacious D

A long time ago, me and my brother Kyle here
We were 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."

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
Oh, yeah
Oh, and it saved our butts, because the demon want to kill us
Oh

But he was forced to set us free, by the honor code that demons
Have to live by

Cause it's Satan's Surprise and it's magic!
And it's a mystical disguise
It's the devil's song and it's tragic!
You are the mystical-eyed virgin and you're rocking!

Well needless to say, the beast was stunned
Whip crack, went the swampy tail, and the beast was done

He asked us, "Be you angels?"
And we said "Nay! We are but men, rock!"

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!

To the greatest song in the world, alright!
To the greatest song in the world, alright!
It is just the best motherfuckin' song, the greatest song in the world

Oh mama, Lucifer

And the peculiar thing is this, my friends:
The song we played on that fatefull night,
didn't actually sound anything like this song!

This is just a tribute
You've gotta believe me
And I wish you were there
Just a matter of opinion
Ah! Fuck!
Good god! And God lovin!
There's no surprise to find you can't stop him!
Rich motherfucker
