Evil
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
If you're a long way from home,
Can't sleep at night.
Grab your telephone,
Something just ain't right.
That's evil,
Evil is goin' on wrong.
Yes I'm warnin' ya brother,
You better watch your happy home.
Well timed to the place
Taking over, human race
Well, long way from home
Can't sleep at all.
You know another mule,
Is kickin' in your stall.
That's evil,
Evil is goin on wrong.
I am warnin' ya brother,
You better watch your happy home.
Well, if ya call her on the telephone,
And she answers awful slow,
Grab the first train smokin,
If you have to hobo.
That's evil,
Evil is goin on wrong.
I am warnin' ya brother,
You better watch your happy home.
If you make it to your house,
You knock on the front door,
Run around to the back,
You'll catch him just before he go.
That's evil,
Evil is goin on.
I am warnin' ya brother,
You better watch your happy home.
