Am I Evil? (Borrowed Time) Lyrics by Diamond Head

Borrowed Time

1982

[Instrumental Intro 0:00 - 1:45]
[Intro]
Ah!
[Verse 1]
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
Blistered and burned, can't hide my disgrace
[Pre-Chorus]
Twenty-seven, everyone was nice
Got to see them, make them 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
[Verse 2]
As I watched my mother diе, I lost my head
Revengе now I sought to break with my bread
Taking no chances, you come with me
I'll split you to the bone, help set you free
[Pre-Chorus]
Twenty-seven, everyone was nice
Got to see them, make them 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
Woah-oh!
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
On with the action now, I'll strip your pride
I'll see you burn in hell, I'll see you ride
Your face is scarred with steel, wounds deep and neat
Like a double dozen before you, smells so sweet
[Chorus]
Am I evil? Yes I am
Am I evil? I am man
[Verse 4]
I'll set my residence, I'll watch you fire
You can come with me, sweet desire
My face is long forgotten, my face not my own
Sweet and timely whore, take me home
[Chorus]
Am I evil? Yes I am
Am I evil? I am man, yes I am
Ooh, mess up your town!
[Instrumental Break]
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
Am I evil? Yes I am
Am I evil? I am man
[Instrumental Outro]
