Evil

Maybe I'm evil
Maybe you're cruel
If you can be somebody's friend, you can be somebody's fool
Maybe I'm guilty
Then guilty I'll be
But don't punish me

Mama don't love me
'Cause I'm like my dad
The greatest man I ever knew, the greatest compliment I ever had
Jesus don't hear me when I'm on my knees
They've got him on a short leash

God built the church, but the devil bought the steeple
He who holds the book owns an awful lot of people
Raise out your arms. Pledge allegiance to some charms
And sing along, sing along, sing along

God built the church, but the devil bought his people
He who holds the coin owns the mob below the steeple
Stir up your mob so they'll never know you rob them as they sing
Sing along, sing along

Maybe I'm right. Maybe I'm wrong
If there's a hell and that's where God would send me
Then I guess that that's the kind of place where I belong
If that makes me wicked, then I'm not alone
I guess some just don't know

Call me the devil all dressed up in skin
If it was God who made a sinning man
Then it was God who put me in the place I'm in
But I'll be your evil if that's what you need
'Cause who don't love to bleed?
