When the Devil is too busy
AndDeath's a bit too much
Theycall on me by name you see,
For myspecial touch.
To theGentlemen I'm Miss Fortune
To theLadies I'm Sir Prize
Butcall me by any name
Anyway it's all the same

I'mthe fly in your soup
I'mthe pebble in your shoe
I'mthe demon in your bed
I'm abump on every head
I'mthe peel on which you slip
I'm apin in every hip
I'mthe thorn in your side
Makesyou wriggle and writhe And it's so easy when you're evil
Thisis the life, you see
TheDevil tips his hat to me
I doit all because I'm evil
And Ido it all for free
Yourtears are all the pay I'll ever need

Whilethere's children to make sad
Whilethere's candy to be had
whilethere's pockets left to pick
Whilethere's grannies left to trip down the stairs
I'llbe there, I'll be waiting 'round the corner
It's agame. I'm glad I'm in it
'Causethere's one born every minute
Andit's so easy when you're evil
Thisis the life, you see
TheDevil tips his hat to me
I doit all because I'm evil
And Ido it all for free
Yourtears are all the pay I'll ever need

Ipledge my allegiance, to all things dark
And Ipromise on my damned soul
To doas I am told, Beelzebub
Hasnever seen a soldier quite like me
Notonly does his job, but does it happily.

I'm thefear that keeps you awake
I'mthe shadows on the wall
I'mthe monsters they become
I'mthe nightmare in your skull
I'm adagger in your back
Anextra turn upon the rack
I'mthe quivering of your heart
Astabbing pain, a sudden start.

Andit's so easy when you're evil
Thisis the life, you see
TheDevil tips his hat to me
I doit all because I'm evil
And Ido it all for free
Yourtears are all the pay I'll ever need
And Ido it all for free
Yourtears are all the pay I'll ever need
And Ido it all for free
Yourtears are all the pay I'll ever need

Itgets so lonely being evil
WhatI'd do to see a smile
Evenfor a little while
And noone loves you when you're evil
I'mlying through my teeth!
Yourtears are all the company I need
