Soul Asylum Just Plain Evil song lyrics

You sold your soul for a lump of coal

She's blacker than the night

Didn't think you'd be needing it

But you thought

But you never know who you might meet

On the street where the church bells ring to a different beat

Is it joy, is it pain? Is it rustin' in the rain?

Do you really think I need it?

Is it just plain evil?

Heard of a man who had a plan

To save the wretched world

Nationwide genocide, like one-eyed jacks

And suicide queens

Look out for if you know what I mean

Is it good, is it bad? Is it bitter, is it sad?

Is it inside all these people?

Is it just plain evil? You've got a lot to learn

You've got a lot to change, you've got nothing to lose

But a ball and chain

Is it good, is it bad? Is it bitter, is it sad?

Do you really think I need it? Is it just plain evil?
