ACT II
The SIX DEMONS appear with lighted candles.
THE SIX DEMONS
Seven, seven, seven,
How do you get to heaven?
Seven's the magic number,
What’s up with the number 7!
(THE DEVIL appears and crosses downstage of the THE SIX DEMONS, who hold lighted
candles. On a cue they blow them out and hold them up high.)
DEVIL
as I fly high above
over fields across the Styx
All my demons go on gathering
and practicing their tricks
with their seven upheld candles
and seven smothered wicks
I'm reminded
just how much
I hate the number 6.
The DEVIL reveals a hat and cane. He wears a vaudeville suit.
Rivers in the Mud
Devil
Oh Mammy.
How I miss ya Mammy
Ya fed me from the left breast
Ya fed him on the right
I slept in the daytime
And he slept in the night
I played in the darkness
he played in the light
ya kept us separated
because ya thought we'd fight
Oh, Mammy
Can't you see it wasn't right.
So I, I took a chance
to see the light of day
He was in the garden
He wanted me to play
Oh Mammy
It was so much fun
we were just bein' kids
no harm done.
DEVIL (
CONT...
)
God and I were friends that day
making little rivers in the mud
long before the flood

five more minutes we were back again
Oh mammy
we were just havin' fun
just bein' kids
no harm done.
Enter TRIO of NURSE ANGELS
NURSE ANGELS
Out in the Garden gathered some mud
and they patted it--down flat!
looked at each other,
said "it was good"
let's make some more--like that!
Devil

can't ya see it's all right
we can take care of it Mammy
we're not gonna fight
Trio
She was not impressed
they got mud on her dress
she wacked them on the head
and sent them off to bed
Devil
Mammy I don't get it
can't you see me frown!
Trio
God went dancing up the stairs and He--
(they point to the Devil)
He went down.

The music dies back down to just a sad piano. MOM enters with Trio
Devil
Mammy
You never did explain to me
just why you leave me
and she said to me:
DEVIL (Cont...)
"It never rains down in hell boy so wipe your tears away.
It never rains down in hell boy so wipe your tears away."
Devil, trio, MOM
it never rains
it never rains
Devil
(a cappella)
it never rains . . .
He puts out his hand. They disappear
