The Scorpion

Megadeth - The Scorpion

My life is everything that feeds my thirst that causes sin my wants are all i care no shame and guilt, there's nothing there look deep into my face i sell deceit without a trace fear not what i can do unless you want it done to you, oh-ohhh! as i climb onto your back, i will promise not to sting i will tell you what you want to hear, and not mean anything then i treat you like a dog as i shoot my venom in you pretend you didn't know that i am a scorpion, oh my self i'm centered in there's nothing else, there's never been and i dream, to be left alone with the sadness, the madness of my own look deep into my soul it's black as coal like a bullet hole fear not, get off your knees there's no defense, you'll do what i please, oh-oh! as i climb onto your back, i will promise not to sting i will tell you what you want to hear, and not mean anything then i treat you like a dog as i shoot my venom in you pretend you didn't know that i am a scorpion, oh as i climb onto your back, i promise not to sting i tell you what you want to hear, and not mean anything i will treat you like a dog as i shoot my venom in 'cause you knew all along i am a scorpion, ya! my lies, to reach the shore i aggrandize and nothing more my hopes, to steal away all that you love, i'll soon betray look deep into my past the pain i deal is unsurpassed i'm not a lowly scorpion i'm so much worse; i'm the fall of man
