This is apropos of nothing except the "song spellbook" thread; I've gotten a couple of emails asking just what this song is, since I listed it in Doug's repertoire. It's an oldie from the sixties, and it seems custom-made for his use. Think driving beat, old rock organ, and a really psychotic vocalist.

I am the god of hellfire and I bring you:
(sung)
Fire, I'll take you to burn.
Fire, I'll take you to learn.
I'll see you burn!
You fought hard and you saved and learned,
but all of it's going to burn.
And your mind, your tiny mind,
you know you've really been so blind.
Now's your time burn your mind.
You're falling far too far behind.
Oh no, oh no, oh no, you gonna burn!
Fire, to destroy all you've done.
Fire, to end all you've become.
I'll feel you burn!
You've been living like a little girl,
in the middle of your little world.
And your mind, your tiny mind,
you know you've really been so blind.
Now's your time burn your mind.
