Matt Jaffe & The Distractions - California's Burning

I Wanna Be Cruel

I know so many versions of myself
I disown them all
I know so many versions of myself
The latest one's installed

The latest one don't care what came before
It just wants to be cruel
The latest one knows that its gonna ignore
Its reputation and its rules

I wanna be cruel
I want to needle the night
I wanna be cruel
Before I get too polite

I want to patent all of my limbs
So they don't betray
Me in the premier wax museums
Where they'd not see day

The day always puts on a loving smile
The night just wants to be cruel
The day runs the courts and judges the trials
The night don't care for the rules

I wanna be cruel
I want to needle the night
I wanna be cruel
Before I get too polite

I wanna be the villain
'cause I have not yet tried
But that don't mean that I'll be killin'
My better-natured side

I wanna be cruel
I want to needle the night
I wanna be cruel
Before I get too polite

I wanna be cruel
I want to needle the night
I wanna be cruel
Before I get too polite
