Am I Evil? Lyrics - Faith No More

(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
