Faith No More - Am I Evil? lyrics

rate me

(Originally recorded by Diamond Head)

My mother was a witch, she was burned alive

Thankless little bitch, for 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, ooh

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

Solo!

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
