Figure 1 is played over this:

A long time ago, me and my brother Kyle here, we were hitchhiking
Down a long and lonesome road, all of a sudden there shined a 
Shiny demon in the middle of the road. And he said

Play the best song in the world or I’ll eat your soul (soul)

Whip crack with your swampy tail, and the beast was done
