I never said I was more than I am
Do what I want and I don't give a damn
You're all so weak you know it makes me ill
Don't like you now and probably never will
[Rhy. Fig 1]
You cheat and lie, and wonder why
You can't sleep at night
[Rhy. Fig 2 w/ End 1]
You're not well, Mr. Blackwell
And we can tell
[Rhy. Fig 2 w/ End 2]
You're not well, Mr. Blackwell
Why don't you go to hell
[Bass only]
I am a sinner who just loves to sin
I am a fighter who just loves to win
I know the truth about this crummy oath
There's nothing here that can't be bought or sold
[Rhy. Fig 1]
You're cold and mean, and in between
You're rotten to the core
[Rhy. Fig 2 w/ End 1] (2x)
You're not well, Mr. Blackwell
And we can tell

Why don't you go to hell

You should be banished from the human race

We'll drink to sorrow then we'll drink to waste
We'll drink a toast to the inhuman race
Here's to the world and the times we're in
Here's to the kid a real man among men
[Rhy. Fig 2]
You're cold and mean, and in between
You're rotten to the core
[Rhy. Fig 2 w/ end 1]
