Born to refuseand raised to exclude Fed myths to disprove by post-colonial prudes: The city was evilsome country was evilthe hippies were evilthe writers were evilthe homeless were evilthe workers were evilthe summer was evilindependence was evil Grown and released with the heart of a thief Wanting only to seek the very gentlest of streets where Nobody's evilnobody's evil.... So easy to hate Just look at the face The nose in the clouds The bulge in the brow And the head on backwards The need to escape all visible space Continuous drift to depend and dismiss And the head on backwards (evilevilweak and now feebleevilevil) evil man! (evilevilwe who would kneelevilevil) evil man! (evilevilman we'll get evenevilevil) evil man! (evilevilwe all know the reasonevilevil) evil man! Here comes the fun Blink and it's gone See what you've won The end's just begun I am the demonI am the demon... The morning is hell The night full of blood Each sickening smell announces a flood In a human holiday No wall at the back No light on the map No fictionno fact No fibre now...chaff In the human holiday (evilevilweak and now feebleevilevil) evil man! (evilevilwe who would kneelevilevil) evil man! (evil demonquit while you're evenevilevil) evil man! (evilevilwe all know the reasonevilevil) evil man! I'm clearing my desk It's time for a rest Tomorrow is deadso the worms have been fed With the head on thatwards The washing of hands The kissing of feet The failure which brands Nightmare without sleep To any fool with a grievanceit's open season! (evilevilweak and now feebleevilevil) evil man! (evilevilwe who would kneelevilevil) evil man! (evilevilquit while you're evenevilevil) evil man! (evilevilwe all know the reasonevilevil) evil man!
