I woke up in the dry Mojave, by an old wooden chair and a young cottonwood tree Standing on a dry lake bed, Cumulus clouds were floating over my head On the far edge of an ancient dry lake shore I saw a distant figure I could not ignore He walked straight up, sat in that chair, and I could see it was Lucifer sitting there And he said Won't you sit down? Won't you sit down? Won't you sit down and paint a formal portrait? Won't you sit down ? Won't you sit down ? Won't you sit down and paint a formal portrait of me ? Now, painting the devil, I had my doubts But I couldn't help wondering what this was all about He spoke to me, and he said Paint me or you'll float forever in the clouds overhead I looked up into the sky And I could see faces in the clouds floating by I thought of floating high in the air And maybe those clouds could carry me anywhere Floating high above the earth Detached from conflict, what's that worth Now that's something that I need to think about Now I had a dilemma in my brain Bargaining with Lucifer seemed insane Painting the devil is something to beware But what about floating for eternity way up there And before I could think he said Won't you sit down? Won't you sit down? Won't you sit down and paint a formal a portrait? Won't you sit down? Won't you sit down? Won't you sit down and paint a formal portrait? Won't you sit down? Won't you sit down?Won't you sit down and paint a formal portrait of me? Paint a formal a portrait Paint a formal a portrait Paint a formal a portrait of me ? Paint a formal a portrait of me ? Paint a formal a portrait of me ? Paint a formal a portrait of me ?
