Since this song goes off in various different directions 
I have added in the time when the certain part is played 
if it is not an obvious riff. 
 
Intro/Verse - 
--------------------------------------------| 
------------1-1-1--1h3--1--0h1--1--1-1-1-1--| 
------0h2---2-2-2--2----2--2----2--2-2-2-2--|

?Play the best song in the world or I?ll eat your souls?

Then go into the verse riff 
 
Then go into Chorus 
 
Then it goes into the little scat part

Lyrics: 
 
This is the greatest and best song in the world; Tribute 
 
A long time ago me and my brother Kyle here 
We was hitchhiking down a long and lonesome road 
All of a sudden there shined a shinny demon in the middle of the road 
And he said, ?Play the best song in the world or I?ll eat your souls.? 
Well me and Kyle, we looked at each other and we each said, ?Okay!? 
 
And we played the first thing that came to our heads  
Just so happened to be the best song in the world 
It was the best song in the world 
 
Look into my eyes and it?s easy to see 
One and one make two, two and one make three; it was destiny 
Once every hundred thousand years or so 
When the sun doth shine and the moon doth glow and the grass doth grow 
 
Needless to say the beast was stunned 
?A Whip, crack!? whipped his whipped tail and the beast was done 
He asked us ?(snort) Be you angels?? 
And we said, ?Nay, we are but men, ROCK ON!? 
 
Oh, woah 
This is not the greatest song in the world; no, this is just a tribute 
Couldn?t remember the greatest song in the world, no 
This is a tribute to the greatest song in the world, alright 
Cause the greatest song in the world, alright, this is the best song 
The greatest song in the world 
 
Hon gee, swee gee goo geep, dooga fleegu gegu la flee gugeguk badei 
He gaguk dee huga boga goga gee fleegu geguk fleega deguk alaee sefea 
 
And the peculiear thing is this my friends, the song we sang on that fateful night  
It didn?t actually song like this song! This is just a tribute 
 
You gotta believe me, and I wish you there, just a matter of opinion 
Ahh, Good God! God lovin? ya! You?re so surprised to find ya can?t stop him ahh! 
Up far, ahhh give up ah yeah! 
 
Alright! 
Alright!
