Intro

         D5    
When the Devil is too busy
And Death's a bit too much
     G5
They call on me by name you see,
For my special touch.
       D5
To the Gentlemen I'm Miss Fortune
To the Ladies I'm Sir Prize
    G5
But call me by any name
A5  
Any way it's all the same


Verse 1

        D5   
I'm the fly in your soup
I'm the pebble in your shoe
        G5
I'm the pea beneath your bed
I'm a bump on every head
        D5
I'm the peel on which you slip
I'm a pin in every hip
        G5
I'm the thorn in your side
Makes you wriggle and writhe


Chorus 

Bb5                            D5 
 And it's so easy when you're evil
Bb5
 This is the life you see
    D5
The Devil tips his hat to me
Bb5                       D5
 I do it all because I'm evil
      A5
And I do it all for free             Dm  
Your tears are all the pay I'll ever need

Verse 2

While there's children to make sad
While there's candy to be had
while there's pockets left to pick
While there's grannies left to trip down the stairs
I'll be there I'll be waiting round the corner
It's a game I'm glad I'm in it
Cause there's one born every minute

Chorus

And it's so easy when you're evil
This is the life you see
The Devil tips his hat to me
I do it all because I'm evil
And I do it all for free
Your tears are all the pay I'll ever need

I pledge my allegiance to all things dark
And I promise on my damned soul
To do as I am told Lord Beelzebub
Has never seen a soldier quite like me
Not only does his job but does it happily

Verse 3

I'm the fear that keeps you awake
I'm the shadows on the wall
I'm the monsters they become
I'm the nightmare in your skull
I'm a dagger in your back
An extra turn upon the rack
I'm the quivering of your heart
A stabbing pain a sudden start

Chorus 2

And it's so easy when you're evil
This is the life you see
The Devil tips his hat to me
I do it all because I'm evil
And I do it all for free
Your tears are all the pay I'll ever need
And I do it all for free
Your tears are all the pay I'll ever need
And I do it all for free
Your tears are all the pay I'll ever need

Outro

G5                       D5
 It gets so lonely being evil
         A5
What I'd do to see a smile
Even for a little while
G5                               D5
And no one loves you when you're evil
    A5
I'm lying though my teeth        Dm
Your tears are all the company I need
