|
When the Devil is too busy |
|
And death's a bit too much |
|
They call on me by name, you see |
|
For my special touch |
|
To the gentlemen, I'm Miss Fortune |
|
To the ladies, I'm Sir Prize |
|
But call me by any name |
|
Anyway, it's all the same |
|
I'm the fly in your soup |
|
I'm the pebble in your shoe |
|
I'm the pea beneath your bed |
|
I'm a bump on every head |
|
I'm the peel on which you slip |
|
I'm a pin in every hip |
|
I'm the thorn in your side |
|
Makes you wriggle and writhe |
|
And it's so easy when you're evil |
|
This is the life, you see |
|
The Devil tips his hat to me |
|
I do it all because I'm evil |
|
And I do it all for free |
|
Your tears are all the pay I'll ever need |
|
While there's children to make sad |
|
While there's candy to be had |
|
While there's pockets left to pick |
|
While there's grannies left to trip down the stairs |
|
I'll be there, I'll be waiting round the corner |
|
It's a game, I'm glad I'm in it |
|
'Cause there's one born every minute |
|
And it's so easy when you're evil |
|
This is the life, you see |
|
The Devil tips his hat to me |
|
I do it all because I'm evil |
|
And I do it all for free |
|
Your tears are all the pay I'll ever need |
|
I pledge my allegiance, to all things dark |
|
And I promise on my damned soul |
|
To do as I am told, Lord Beelzebub |
|
Has never seen a soldier quite like me |
|
Not only does his job, but does it happily |
|
I'm the fear that keeps you awake |
|
I'm the shadows on the wall |
|
I'm the monsters they become |
|
I'm the nightmare in your skull |
|
I'm a dagger in your back |
|
An extra turn on the rack |
|
I'm the quivering of your heart |
|
A stabbing pain, a sudden start |
|
And it's so easy when you're evil |
|
This is the life, you see |
|
The Devil tips his hat to me |
|
I do it all because I'm evil |
|
And I do it all for free |
|
Your tears are all the pay I'll ever need |
|
And I do it all for free |
|
Your tears are all the pay I'll ever need |
|
And I do it all for free |
|
Your tears are all the pay I'll ever need |
|
It gets so lonely being evil |
|
What I'd do to see a smile |
|
Even for a little while |
|
And no one loves you when you're evil |
|
I'm lying though my teeth! |
|
Your tears are all the company I need |
