When you're evil


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 FortuneTo the Ladies I'm Sir PrizeBut call me by any name
Any way it's all the sameI'm the fly in your soupI'm the pebble in your shoeI'm the demon in your bedI'm a bump on every headI'm the peel on which you slipI'm a pin in every hipI'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 hadwhile there's pockets left to pick
While there's grannies left to trip down the stairsI'll be there, I'll be waiting 'round the cornerIt'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, BeelzebubHas never seen a soldier quite like me
Not only does his job, but does it happily.I'm the fear that keeps you awakeI'm the shadows on the wallI'm the monsters they becomeI'm the nightmare in your skullI'm a dagger in your back
An extra turn upon the rackI'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 evilI'm lying through my teeth!
Your tears are all the company I need

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

Cabaret Voltaire was a British experimental electronic music group from Sheffield, England, active from 1973 to 2003. Considered pioneers of industrial music and experimental electronic music, they profoundly influenced genres like electro-rock, techno, and noise. The group consisted of Richard H. Kirk (vocals, synthesizers), Stephen Mallinder (vocals, percussion) and Chris Watson (ambient sounds). Their characteristic sound was based on sampling, looping, distortion, and industrial rhythms, often accompanied by provocative and visionary lyrics exploring themes like mass society, consumerism, and technology. Among their most representative tracks are "Nag Nag Nag", "Just Fascination" and "Do The Mussolini Head-Spin". Cabaret Voltaire released over 20 studio albums, including "The Voice of America" (1978) and "Red Mecca" (1980), which helped define the aesthetics and philosophy of industrial music.
