Mephistopheles
Mephistopheles (/ˌmɛfɪˈstɒfɪˌliːz/, German pronunciation: [mefɪˈstɔfɛlɛs]; also Mephistophilus, Mephistophilis, Mephostopheles, Mephisto, Mephastophilis and variants) is a demon featured in German folklore. He originally appeared in literature as the demon in the Faust legend, and he has since appeared in other works as a stock character.
Etymology
The word may derive from the Hebrew mephitz which means "propagator", and tophel which means "liar". The name can also be a combination of three Greek words: "me" as a negation, "phos" meaning light, and "philis" meaning loving, making it mean "not-light-loving", possibly parodying the Latin "Lucifer" or "light-bearer".
In the Faust legend
The name is associated with the Faust legend of a scholar – based on the historical Johann Georg Faust – who wagers his soul with the Devil.
The name appears in the late 16th century Faust chapbooks. In the 1725 version, which Goethe read, Mephostophiles is a devil in the form of a greyfriar summoned by Faust in a wood outside Wittenberg.

by: PuppetmastazIts takes a puppet regime
to bring down the rap_
publican money machine
cash-crop evil pops it corny
corporate cells be countin´genes
i`m seeing plots of sellery
got bouncing beans, mashed money
in this cultural agri_clash
cows bite the grass like
its covered in honey. Snuggles
the bunny - $unny atlast!!!
Farmer gotta 45 - that`s a rabbit
on the runny path, fresh greens
in my tummy, yummy yummy: cash!
What you don`t think thats funny?
Do the math: 45 revolutions per minute
and i`m still playing russian roullette
with the spinage, aftermath:
my seeds of thought are the limit,
plus there`s no bullet proofing
to me spitting an image! guess what?
jack-rabbit´s back, so take that
on this 24 carat-track, im a 24 carrot-mac that´s bringing salad back!
You wanna see the sunshine?
I'm giving you a 1000 rainy days
You wanna hear some punch lines?
Now you're living in a tragedy
Well it's all funny when you're in
the money but the money it never pays your way with Mephistopheles
Ruinin the earth ruinin the cities but gold in a nugget sack
the earth is a treasure box yuo might not be able to be payin it back
50 cent might have all the money--but he can not show his face
whenever he leaves his home behind hes like in a zoo in a caddillac cage
thers another side to what you think you own you better check it out cause
them demons is always hungry and their voices might turn loud!
What the hell am I doing here?
I thought I was checking in to a hotel
No, I'm going to hell
Took a look into my heart and decided
to situate my apartment right there inside the darkest part
I'm gonna get rich a jet-set snitch puttin' on the c-funk at the Ritz
Yeah, me: a frog prince charming your pants off
You know it's a crime against nature but you just can't stop
and I won't stop 'til I cop a helicopter for a half a mil
got my sights locked on the bills house in the hills
with the swimming pool filled with the drool of all the fools that made fun of me in school
You wanna see the sunshine?
I'm giving you a 1000 rainy days
You wanna hear some punch lines?
Now you're living in a tragedy
Well it's all funny when you're in
the money but the money it never pays your way with Mephistopheles
The Puppet Regime is taking over
Puppet regime
never just living the dream
for the green
one hell of a scheme
Puppet regime
fraggles in your limozine
illuminati on your t.v. screen
Taking over!
You wanna see the sunshine?
I'm giving you a 1000 rainy days
You wanna hear some punch lines?
Now you're living in a tragedy
Well it's all funny when you're in
