Career of Evil
I plot your rubric scarab,
I steal your satellite,
I want your wife to be my
baby tonight, baby, tonight.

I choose to steal what you chose to show,
and you know, I will not apologize.
You're mine for the taking,
I'm making a career of evil.

Pay me, I'll be your surgeon,
I'd like to pick your brains.
Capture you, inject you,
leave you kneeling in the rain.

I choose to steal what you chose to show,
and you know, I will not apologize.
You're mine for the taking,
I'm making a career of evil.

I'd like your blue eyed horseshoe.
I'd like your emerald horny toad.
I'd like to do it to your daughter on a dirt road

And then I'd spend your ransom money,
but still, I'd keep your sheep.
I'd peel the mask you're wearing,
and then rob you of your sleep.

I choose to steal what you chose to show,
and you know, I will not apologize.
You're mine for the taking,
I'm making a career of evil.

on Secret Treaties, 1974
