Daniel Johnston - Don't Play Cards With Satan Lyrics
Don't play cards with Satan
He'll deal you an awful hand
Don't play cards with Satan
He'll deal you an awful hand
I thought I saw a bluebird sitting on a post
Shiver down my spine
I thought it was the Holy Ghost
I heard the word before
And I knew that it was good
Somebody oughta do like the Good Book should
I heard the voice of Satan crying in the woods
I saw my own heart laying black with blood
Don't play cards with Satan
Please believe me
Did I ever stop and tell you I am a desperate man?
A desperate man
Take it
Satan!

Daniel obviously doesn't know Satan...He'll deal you a monster of a hand and then hit a one outer on the river after he got you to go all in on the turn
auuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
Good advice for beginners. Too bad this dude didn't take his own advice.
Heard the voice of satan crying in the woods
R.i.p ..
Rip Daniel an individual talent
Like si Luisito Fornica te trajo aqui
this is definitely a butthole surfers reference when he shouts "satan!"
Absolutely love this. The emotion in his shaking voice, gives me goosebumps. His poetry is just amazing
I don't know why but first I laughed when hearing this song for the first time, but then I started cryign what the fuck.
yea daniel johnston's songs will do that to you.
Recorded at CBGB. Don't know of any footage of this momentous occasion, Dan earning the OMFUG cred.
Please believe me
Don't play cards with jesus he will send you all to hell if you win and he is such a hypocrite. .
@*****
I don't believe in your psychotic genocidal religion or your imaginary master you call God.
@*****
If your going to evangelize your belief filled with layer upon layer of lies to subjugate large portions of the population as well as keeping them benighted. What you should really be doing is studying astrophysics, musicology, psychology, neurobiology, anthropology, palentology, sociology. Rather then wasting your time preaching the false gospel of the Christian Death Cult which confidently wears the symbolism of capital punishment and torture around their necks waiting their entire life's thinking their death will be better then their life's, just as an atheist would wear a noose around their neck so does the theist.
If Jesus isn't real then how can he be a hypocrit?
Jesus was an anarchist, the original Domestic Terrorist, you are mistaken about the real christian message
@The Paramnesia Facade Wow, you're such an admirable independent thinker, the way you perfectly parrot the dominant paradigm of Western Materialism under which you live.
Satan is a badass.
nihilist fool, a Bernard for sure!
Nowhere near as badass as Jesus. Satan runs from even the mention of Jesus' name.
This is really beautiful art. Parts of it are so depressing and haunting, but then I can't help but lose it in laughter when he yells "take it!" for his own solo.
I think maybe he is talking about his soul? Otherwise that would be pretty funny, haha.
around the time mtv was coming to his town, he had just chose to take up guitar instead of piano (which he's really good at) because thats what most of the other musicians played so he didn't really have enough time to practice. Thats why most of his guitar songs have the standard G, C, and D chords. and his struming is just up and down instead of the down down up down up down progression. I also doubt he learned how to tune his guitar either. So I don't think its so much the guitar.
His piano skills really shine on the live recording "Volksbuhne, Berlin, 1999". Pretty sure it's on youtube.
satan is more here alive then jesus is so stfu with ur hollow response.. you never have seen satan
Love the Youtube,..if a song pops in my head that I haven't heard in a while, it's here! SATAN! SATAN! SATAN!
2:08 scared the shit out of me first time I listened..such a good song
Great song!!
