lyrics

Well I say you're evil, I say the devil knows your name
Yes I say you're evil, I say the devil knows your name
Well he sleeps in your mouth, and he moves in your veins

I saw you wave your hand and a blood moon rose that night
Saw you wave your hand a blood moon rose that night
And all the Demons came around and danced in the red moonlight

Tell me, what do you love? What do you love? Tell me what you love?
You don't love nothing, you love nothing

Well you live in a White House, but your soul black tar
Yeah you live in a White House, but your soul black tar
And when Satan comes knocking, and he walks right in the front door

Tell me, what do you love? What do you love? Tell me what you love?
You don't love nothing, you love nothing

When you walk the earth it's evil that you sew
The ground smells of sulfur and nothing green will grow

You have goblins in your basement and they do what you say
You tell them "Go burn the world" and send them on their way

You lick the golden idles feet then you walk on the earth leaving the smell of sulfur and nothing green will grow. Hatred and fear move with you and you spit their poison through the land. At first you spun your webs in the dark, but now you're in the light and the people see who you are, and they will come for you in great numbers. They will drag you out and bury you in the very ground that you poisoned. And I will put my boots on, and I'll walk  on your grave.

Tell me, what do you love? What do you love? Tell me what you love?
You don't love nothing
You love nothing
