the words go (see the CD booklet):
verse1
color my world all black n blue
the hell you dish out
comes back threefold to you
inside your riddled, rotten core
I hope you get what you deserve
worse
and even more

chorus
how could you do the things you do?
you make satan look like christ, I swear its true
how could you do the things you do?

verse2
the rolling stones once sang a tune
singing words of sympathy
yet none were sung for you
if the Lord of Darkness seen you coming his way
he get on his knees looked for jesus
and start to prey

chorus
