"Am I Evil?"

My mother was a witch

She was burned alive

Thankless little bitch

Oh, the tears I cried

Take her down now

Don't want to see her face

All blistered and burnt

Can't hide my disgrace

Twenty-seven, everyone was nice

Gotta see 'em make 'em 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

Taking no chances

You come with me

I'll split you to the bone

Help set you free

Twenty-seven, everyone was nice

Gotta see 'em make 'em 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

Ya smells so sweet

Am I evil?

Yes I am

Am I evil?

I am man

I'll make my residence

I'll watch your fire

You can come with me

Sweet desire

My face is long forgot

My face not my own

Sweet and timely whore

Take me home

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 forgot

My face not my own

Sweet and timely whore

Take me home

Am I evil?

Yes I am

Am I evil?

I am man

Am I evil?

Yes I fucking am

Am I evil?

I am man, yeah
