Gambling With A Demon
Os Catalépticos Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I speaking about hell
and my will to have a band and play well.
I tried all the ways to find the demon
Red candles, dark rooms and talking to mirrors
Many times I spoke with all my voice
But it was not enough to find the demon.
Latter come the idea when I saw my black chicken
A terrible disaster hare up her final date
I tried all the ways to find the demon
Red candles, dark rooms and talking to mirrors
Many times I spoke with all my voice
But it was not enough to find the demon.
Now I have a little present to bad thing
Is not my dirty soul but I´t one to gambling with the demon.
Thanks master I have a band
And that's so good I can't tell
But sometimes I remember
My chicken in the hell.
Oh my God!
Save my soul the demon just found out
A killed my chicken, lost my band
And now, I'm in the hell
The song "Gambling with a demon" by Os Catalépticos is a narrative about a man's obsession to find and make a deal with a demon. It starts with him hanging out with his friends at a bar where he expresses his desire to start a band and play well. However, he is also consumed by his fascination with hell and finding a demon. He tries various ways to summon the demon, including using red candles, dark rooms, and talking to mirrors. Despite his efforts, he is unable to find the demon until he realizes that his black chicken is his ticket to the underworld.
The man makes a deal with the demon, offering it his ability to gamble in exchange for a band. The deal seems to have worked, and the man gets his band, but he is haunted by the memory of his chicken and the hellish consequences of his actions. In the end, the demon discovers that he killed the chicken and punishes him by taking away his band and sending him straight to hell.
The lyrics of the song reflect the common cautionary tale of making deals with the devil. The singer's obsession with finding a demon and making a deal with it shows his desperation for success and his willingness to do whatever it takes to achieve his goals. The song also reflects themes of regret, loss, and the consequences of making reckless decisions.
