A/N: It may be helpful if you listen to the song itself, as I've tried to fit the lyrics to the song's original layout as best I could. 6/8/08
Enjoy. My-HiME is property of Sunrise. Song originally by The Charlie Daniels Band.
(musical intro)
The Devil went down to Fuuka, he was looking for a soul to steal
He was in a bind 'cause he was way behind and was willing to make a deal
When he came across this young girl blowin' on a flute and playing it hot
And the Devil jumped up a sakura branch and said, "Kid, let me tell you what
"It might be a surprise for you to hear that I play the flute as well
And if you care to take a dare, I'll bet you right in this dell.
Now, you're pretty good with that flute, little girl, but give the Devil his due
I'll bet a flute of gold against your soul to think I'm better than you."
The girl said, "My name's Shiho, and it might be a sin
But I'll take that dare, and you'd best beware, we're the best that's ever been."
Shiho, tune up that flute and play it with all your heart
'Cause hell's broke loose in Fuuka with the Devil's shopping cart
And if you win, you'll get this shiny flute that's made of gold
But if you lose, the Devil gets your soul…
(brief solo)
The Devil pulled out the golden fife and said, "I'll start this off."
And flames shot out from his lips as he cleared his throat with a cough.
Then the Devil wiped its mouthpiece clean and it made an evil hiss
And a marching band of Orphans joined and they sounded something like this.
(Devil's solo)
When the Devil finished, Shiho said, "Well, you're pretty good, old son.
But sit down on the bench right there; let me show you how it's done."
Fire on the mountain, run HiME run
The Devil's in the land of the rising sun
Runnin' through rice paddies, sloshing all 'round
Pickin' up a worm, Hey, look what I found
(Shiho's solo)
The Devil raised his head and said, "Well, this is quite a bind.
From the look of things, it seems as though the two of us have tied."
Shiho said, "Oh, that's all right, we can leave it as a draw.
What's more important to me is that you've now exposed your flaw."
The Devil then turned around and saw something quite scary:
An arrow pointed at his head, all glowing like a fairy.
The nun holding the bow said "Away from this place, foul being.
For us HiME all stand ready and God is always seeing."
The Devil hung his head because he had shown his one weak point.
His plans for taking Fuuka's souls were now thrown out of joint.
Shiho said, "Devil, just come on back if you ever want to try again
I told you once, you son of a gun, we're the best that's ever been."
She played
Fire on the mountain, run HiME run
The Devil's in the land of the rising sun
Runnin' through rice paddies, sloshing all 'round
Pickin' up a worm, Hey, look what I found
(Victory solo)
There are two extra stanzas after Shiho's solo. These are to the music for the first two stanzas. Man, this'd be easier if I could convey music over FF as well.
Please review. I appreciate feedback so long as it doesn't burn.
