Sinning (G. Jones / P. Papadiamondis)

Back in the night is the father of hell,
By command that I wont go (?),
If your a stranger your life is in danger,
So guard your lives.

I've a vocation of verse meditation,
I know if it's to ditch,
Optimum (?),
Yes I'm a witch.

No fantasy,
You're stuck with me,
No wonder evil, none is there to be found.

Sinning every day,
Cussing all the way,
Sinning every day,
Cussing all the way.

No fantasy,
You'er trapped with me,
Just dont get tired and I wont bring you down,

Sinning every day,
Cussing all the way,
Sinning every day,
Cussing all the way.

Rather be a bitch, just look at me,
Bein' a witch is what I'd rather be,
You just make me mad, I'll let you see,
What I'd rather be,
What Id rather (be/feel),
Bad as I can be,
Mad as I can be,
What Id rather see,
What Id rather be,
Bad as I can be,
Bad as I can be.

No fantasy,
Your stuck with me,
There ae no reasons on this earth to be found.

Sinning every day,
Cussing all the way,
Sinning every day,
Cussing all the way.
No fantasy,
You're trapped with me,
Just dont get tired and I wont bring you down,
Bad as I can be.

Sinning every day,
Cussing all the way,
Sinning every day,
Cussing all the way.

Rather be a bitch, just look at me,
Bein' a witch is what I'd rather be,
You just make me mad, I'll let you see,
What I'd rather be,
What Id rather (be/feel),
Bad as I can be,
Mad as I can be,
What Id rather see,
Mad as I can be,
What Id rather be,
Bad as I can be.

Thats what I would rather be,
Just as bad as I can be,
Thats what I would rather be,
Just as bad as I can be,
Thats what I would rather be.

Suffer (T. Moulton / T. Baldursson)

You did your dirt, you did your wrong,
So, suffer,
You had your fun, and now it's done,
So, suffer,
Take that!
And That!
Take that!

Stop!

I didnt know I was hurting anyone,
I didnt think , I was only having fun,
Is it bad, to put me through all this,
All this pain, you're driving me insane,
I didnt know I was only having fun,
I didnt think I was hurting anyone,
Is it bad, to put me through all this,
All this pain, you're driving me insane. (Repeat to end)

Don't Mess With The Messer (G. Jones / P. Papadiamondis)

So you think I'm a girl [?],
Because I look good enough to eat?
[?] there's a worls that we desire, [?].

Johnny now your'e a honey trapped in my tree,
You shoul'a known better, should have known better,
Messin' with love's queen bee,

Don't mess with the messer.
I aint' suger, I aint' spice,
I've laid everything all nice,
I can be as cold as ice.

Well, hello, your'e Johnny's friend arnt' you?
He sent me to se you,
He was a good worker for this queen bee!
Anyway, I have something I'll give.

If it's a working mans desire,
Boy, are you gonna be tired.

Johnny now your trapped in my honeycomb,
Shoulda' known better, leavin' queen bee alone,

Don't mess with the messer.
I aint' suger, I aint' spice,
I've laid everything all nice,
I can be as cold as ice.

Better not mess with the messer,
Don't mess with the messer!

Johnny now your'e a honey trapped in my tree,
You shoulda' known better, should have known better,
Messin' with love's queen bee,

Don't mess with the messer.
I aint' suger, I aint' spice,
I've laid everything all nice,
I can be as cold as ice.

Johnny now your trapped in my honeycomb,
Ya shoulda' known better, shoulda' known better,
Leavin' queen bee alone,

Don't mess with the messer.
I aint' suger, I aint' spice,
I've laid everything all nice,
I can be as cold as ice.

Do you know what I mean?

On Your Knees (D. C. LaRue / Jerry Corbetta)

Didn't you say you love me,
Once upon a time,
Didn't you whisper in my ear,
Your mine, mine, mine?

Didnt you turn your back on me,
And [?] me the floor,
Head held high, you walk right out the door?

Sayin' I don't need you,
I dont love you any more,
You broke my heart,
With so much ease,
And now you dare to say you want me back again!

Well if you please,
Time to get down, on you knees,
Time to beg, time to crawl, time to please,
Time to get down, on you knees,
Time to crumble, to pay [?],
Time to get down, on you knees,
Time to beg, time to crawl, time to get down,
Time to get down, on you knees.

Didn't you care about me,
The things you put me through,
The heartache that I lived through,
Over you, you, you?

You let my love go hungry,
While you set your evil pride,
Cheatin' right behind my back,
Of all the times you lied!

But I stayed at home,
Moved at home[?],
Kept me up with [?],

You broke my heart,
With so much ease,
And now you dare to say you want me back again!

Well if you please,
Time to get down, on you knees,
Time to beg, time to crawl, time to please,
Time to get down, on you knees,
Time to crumble, to pay [?],
Time to get down, on you knees,
Time to beg, time to crawl, time to get down,
Time to get down, on you knees.

Didn't take long to cahnge your song,
And come around, [?].

Time to get down, on you knees,
Time to beg, time to crawl, time to please,
Time to get down, on you knees,
Time to crumble, to pay [?],
Time to get down, on you knees,
Time to beg, time to crawl, time to please,
Time to get down, on you knees,
Time to get down, on you knees,
Get down, get down, get down on you knees.
