I don't recall who asked, but as promised, I am posting the lyrics written by
a friend of my based on the book "Dinner at Deviant's Palace" by Tim Powers.
Yes, there is original music to go with these lyrics, but I was warned that I
should never allow anyone to hear it.

DINNER AT DEVIANT'S PALACE
Lyrics copyright 1997 by Ann Cecil
Based on the novel "Dinner at Deviant's Palace" by Tim Powers
Out to redeem the girl of my dream
I'm off and running
My pelican gunning
I ought to remember the ways to trick the girls with the birdy look
But nobody's making book
'Cause I'm being invited to dinner at Deviant's Palace
Got to prevent that psychic sacrament
My defense is paining
My ego is straining
Sister Sue is suspicious of my disguise though Windchime's the real surprise
But romance is just not wise
'Cause I'm being divided by dinner at Deviant's Palace
Walk in Hope city find more to pity
Jaybush is greeding
On innocents' bleeding
My painful evasion will get me past the Trashman and all the crew
But that's all that I can do
'Cause I'm getting absorbed in dinner at Deviant's Palace
Play in the game whatever the name
Everyone's floating
Jaybush is bloating
I'm caught twixt this ET's ungodly pow'rs and my hemoglobe's hungry maw
I'll let it feast on alien raw
'Cause I'm madly escaping from dinner at Deviant's Palace
Froze that fake man far as I can
His power's seducing
But I couldn't be loosing
This crystal corruption upon the world in spite of sick Sister Sue
With this pendant I'll be true
'Cause I'll always remember that dinner at Deviant's Palace
