Triumph of the Will

Devo ( /ˈdiːvoʊ/, originally /diːˈvoʊ/) is an American punk rock/New Wave band formed in 1972 consisting of members from Kent and Akron, Ohio.

It was a message from below 
It was a messy situation 
It was a triumph of the will 

Before I die 
Before I die 
Before I die 
I'll get another piece of pie 
I'll get another piece of pie 
I'll get another piece of pie 
If I have to lie

When the well cries out for water 
It is a need that must be filled 
It goes beyond the laws of nature 
It takes a triumph of the will
