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! |
