If lust and hate is the candy,
if blood and love tastes so sweet,
then we give 'em what they want.
Hey, hey, give 'em what they want.
So their eyes are growing hazy 'cos they wanna turn it on,
so their minds are soft and lazy.
Well, hey, give 'em what they want.
If lust and hate is the candy,
if blood and love tastes so sweet,
then we give 'em what they want.
So their eyes are growing hazy 'cos they wanna turn it on,
so their minds are soft and lazy.
Well... who do you wanna blame?

We recommend: If I Were A Drinker
And I know you haven't heard it
Developed theory to rationalise
These feelings, existing in someone's mind
A boy has a stage of wanting
To sleep with his mother and
Killing his father
To this strange complex
There is a flipside
Young girls having the same complex
Called electra complex
Geniuses have it,
Mountain people need it and
Politicians want it
Sinister essence in twisted minds
In a sane mind the question is why?
