He was looking for a soul to steal
And he was in a bind
'Cause he was now way behind
And was willin' to make another deal.
When he came upon this young woman painting
on Photoshop and croppin' it hot
the devil popped in onto a nearby
chat and said,
"Dragongirl, let me tell you what:
I bet you didn't know it
but I'm a master of websites too,
And if you care to take a dare
I'll make a bet with you
Now you make a pretty good homepage girl
But give the devil his due
I'll bet a laptop of gold against your soul
'Cause I think I'm better than you."
The girl said, "My name's Claire
And bah, I don't care if it's a sin
I'll take your bet, you'll damn regret
'Cause I'm the best that's ever been."
Dragoness, you tighten up your scripts and code your
XML hard 'Cause hell's broke loose on your hard drive
And the devil ain't just a bard
And if you win you get this shiny laptop made of gold
But if you lose the devil gets your soul.
The devil opened up his tablet and he said,
"I'll start this show."
And fire flew from his fingertips
To sketch out his user flow
And he slid his hands across the screen
And the keys made an evil click
Then a band of script demons joined in
And their site was Yahoo's top pick
When the devil finished Claire said,
"Meh, that's pretty good for some!
But sit down in that forum right there.
And let me show you how art's done!"
Fire on dragon mountain, run boys run
Devil's in the cave that returns no one
CGI over PHP, weaving some fine sites
Google uses the link more, Yahoo bites
The devil bowed his head
Because the 'net said that he'd been beat,
And he laid that golden laptop
On the ground at Claire's feet
Claire said, "Devil, just come on back
if you ever wanna get slapped again.
I done told you once,
You son-of-a-bitch,
I'm the best that's ever been!"
