and what if I were the son of the devil

and what if I were the son of the devil
a connoisseur of exquisite evil
what if I were thus without care
deprived of any commandments to bear

it would be best to avoid me like the plague
keep distance, to avoid any undesirable ache
I would not argue, I would not object
no protest in me you would detect

you would have to follow your own path
and I would pursue the mission I have
I would not bother you further in any way
and you would not risk to become the devil's prey
