"Am I Evil?" lyrics

"Am I Evil?"

My mother was a witch, she was burned alive
Thankless little bitch, for the tears I cried
Take her down now, don't wanna see her face
Blistered and burnt, can't hide my disgrace

27 every one was nice
Gotta see them make them pay the price
See their bodies out on the ice
Take my time

Am I evil? Yes, I am!
Am I evil? I am man, yes, I am!

As I watched my mother die, I lost my head
Revenge now I sought, to break with my bread
Takin' no chances, you come with me
I'll split you to the bone, help set you free

27 every one was nice
Gotta see them make them pay the price
See their bodies out on the ice
Take my time

Am I evil? Yes, I am!
Am I evil? I am man, yes, I am!

On with the action now, I'll strip your pride
I'll spread your blood around, I'll see you ride
Your face is scarred with steel, wounds deep and neat
Like a double dozen before you, smell so sweet

Am I evil? Yes, I am!
Am I evil? I am man

My soul is longing for, await my heir
Sent to avenge my mother, sweep myself
My face is long forgotten, my face not my own
Sweet and timely whore, take me home

Am I evil? Yes, I am!
Am I evil? I am man, yes, I am!

On with the action now, I'll strip your pride
I'll spread your blood around, I'll see you ride
Your face is scarred with steel, your spirits dance
Like a double dozen before you, no romance

Am I evil? Yes, I am!
Am I evil? I am man
Am I evil? Yes, I am!
Am I evil? I am man, yes, I am
