An update from hell...

So Rush is being shown around hell by Satan and as they pass rooms, Satan is saying, "Just pick a room to spend eternity in and we can get started." Rush is looking at all the rooms and he sees a burning pit searing the flesh off the deserving, a room with a pit of vipers crawling and biting their victims and then he comes to a room where a bunch of people are standing knee deep in shit and smoking cigars and drinking scotch. Rush, emphatically says "I pick this room!" Satan makes his wish true and Rush finds himself with a cigar and a glass of scotch, knee deep in shit...he beams happily.

After a minute a bell loudly sounds and a demon on a bullhorn yells, "Ok breaks over, everyone back on your heads..."

the devil is also a southerner ...

“...fortunately for him, the Devil is also a Southerner. So, this song’s going to take place in Hell, told from the Devil’s point of view, as he does what any good Southerner would do when company’s coming: He brewed up some good sweet tea, and whups up some Southern hospitality for the arrival of the new guest.”
