The Evil That Men Display |
| I met that guy, that guy late one night |
| His face was gleaming in the pale moonlight |
| His arms were scarred, a guitar in hand |
| I found it hard to keep my stand |
| I raised my very last beer for defense |
| He said «Thank you» in a mocking sense |
| And he said: «If I could start anew |
| I would play stuff like you!» |
| It’s meant to shock you off |
| They try to scare away |
| They’re really not that tough |
| Don’t fear the evil that men display! |
| We played a show, a show far away |
| We left the bus for the restrooms urgently |
| Some local band had put on their make-up |
| The bathroom’s floor soaked with blood |
| They played their show in an infernal way |
| Backstage we could hear them say: |
| «Don't you buy that new mascara! |
| You won’t look well, smears like hell» |
| It’s meant to shock you off |
| They try to scare away |
| They’re really not that tough |
| Don’t fear the evil that men display! |
| At first it scares you, strikes you with fright |
| Then it appears in a different light |
| What seemed to be an offensive attack? |
| Preventive defense to keep you back |
| If you see someone scary and frightful |
| Believe in half of what you see |
| Because the guys who are really nasty |
| Know to pretend they are friends |
| It’s meant to shock you off |
| They try to scare away |
| They’re really not that tough |
| Don’t fear the evil that men display! |
| It’s meant to shock you off |
| They try to scare away |
| They’re really not that tough |
| Don’t fear the evil that men display! |
