I'm so Evil is a satirical look at life through the eyes of an antagonist, such as the classic Hollywood bad-guy, or just your average run-of-the-mill office-jerk. We mostly assume that evil people know they are evil, when in reality, they wouldn’t see themselves in that negative light at all. Nobody wants to admit they are a douchebag. This song is an experiment in understanding (and making fun of) the inner workings of such a character.
lyrics
Hey I’m so evil, I got evil on my mind.
Hey, I’ve got nothing but complacency and all this fucking time.
I got boredom, I got nothing left inside.
But hey, got a handle, I can manage it.
No honestly I’m fine, fine, fine!
No honestly I’m fine.
I don’t gotta go outside. I’ll fight you on historic pathological lines, baby now.
I don’t want to waste your time, I’d rather just manipulate the state of your mind, so kiss it goodbye.
Hey I was evil, I was way before my time.
I beat the crowd, beat the curve, beat Val Kilmer in his prime.
Never scared I might be dying on the vine.
Gonna have a metamorphosis and shift the paradigm.
I’m fine, I said I’m fucking fine, fine, fine!
I hate discotheque!
I don’t gotta go outside. I’ll fight you on historic pathological lines, baby now.
I don’t want to waste your time, I’d rather just manipulate the state of your mind.
God save the king, he’s got a serious disease, they say it could kill everyone but God save the king for something better, yeah we’ll save his skin, made out of leather.
Come on baby I see your reptile is showing (yeah you can see for yourself).
We can see what you are without even knowing (and so does everyone else).
You caught the bug and it got your heartbeat going (and we will never forget).
Come on baby I see your reptile, your reptile is showing.
Hey I’m so evil, I’m so evil don’t you know?
I was feeling insecure so I bought a fucking boat. I’m so evil but I think it’s time to go.
But don’t be sad, I’ll be back, I’m a steal the fucking show.
I’m fine, I said I’m fucking fine, fine, fine!
I hate discotheque!
I don’t gotta go outside. I’ll fight you on historic pathological lines, baby now.
I don’t want to waste your time, I’d rather just manipulate the state of your mind, so kiss it goodbye.
