The Fatima Mansions - Evil Man lyrics

Born to refuse, and raised to exclude Fed myths to disprove by post-colonial prudes: The city was evil, some country was evil, the hippies were evil, the writers were evil, the homeless were evil, the workers were evil, the summer was evil, independence was evil Grown and released with the heart of a thief Wanting only to seek the very gentlest of streets where Nobody's evil, nobody'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 (evil, evil, weak and now feeble, evil, evil) evil man! (evil, evil, we who would kneel, evil, evil) evil man! (evil, evil, man we'll get even, evil, evil) evil man! (evil, evil, we all know the reason, evil, evil) evil man! Here comes the fun Blink and it's gone See what you've won The end's just begun I am the demon, i 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 fiction, no fact No fibre now...chaff In the human holiday (evil, evil, weak and now feeble, evil, evil) evil man! (evil, evil, we who would kneel, evil, evil) evil man! (evil demon, quit while you're even, evil, evil) evil man! (evil, evil, we all know the reason, evil, evil) evil man! I'm clearing my desk It's time for a rest Tomorrow is dead, so 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 grievance, it's open season! (evil, evil, weak and now feeble, evil, evil) evil man! (evil, evil, we who would kneel, evil, evil) evil man! (evil, evil, quit while you're even, evil, evil) evil man! (evil, evil, we all know the reason, evil, evil) evil man!
