Am I Evil? Lyrics

Metallica, originally performed by DiamondHead (Recorded in 1982)

- words and music by Brian Tatler and Sean Lindon Harris

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.

*Chorus*:

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

Takin' 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

*Chorus*

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

*Chorus*

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

*Chorus*

My soul is longing for, await my heir

Sent to avenge my mother, sleep myself

My face is long forgot, my face not my own

Sweet and timely whore, take me home

*Chorus*

Am I evil? Yes I fucking am!

Am I evil? I am man, yeah
