Progeny from the loins of Lucifer
A goat-footed entrepreneur of slur
The Pipes of Pan is lure for Succubus
For mere mortal man his allure disgusts.

Sybaritic goat with craven cloven hoofs
Seduces and takes young lasses as proof
Of his hedonistic lifestyle so vile
Gutted with desire he oft does beguile.

Oh, you hairy-legged beast keep at bay
Away from our women you use as prey
With that insidious grin you were born
From Satan's loins, he did give you a horn

One horn, dead center of your evil head
Tribute to your bedroom skills it is said
The scourge of mankind for lo, all these years
Taking these women with your lancing spear.

We oft do wonder where our women go
Are they bedding the wicked Billygoat?

Well, the chief Satyr is the God of fertility is he not?  What then should we expect of his minions?  Girls 'n' goats... you say it like it's a bad thing.  :P

Seriously, I like the inspiration here... and the references to Pan and the thyrsus.  Add to this their musical talents and it's no wonder our women wander.  

The versatility you display in your writing amazes me at times.

Haha! Yeah, I tried to get all the lust-filled demons of mythology, although I barely scratched the surface.

Appreciate your very kind words, Michael, very much.

Haha! Hi Sunshine, is that Billygoat in your neighborhood? Haha! Thanks for dropping in to the lower end of my spectrum. Gotta love it.
