I Want To Be Evil

| Cm     |


[Verse 1]
Cm
  I've posed for pictures with Iv'ry
 Soap
Gm
  I've petted stray dogs, and shied 
clear of dope
F
 My smile is brilliant, my glance is
 tender
G7                        
  But I'm noted most for my 
             Cm
unspoiled agenda


[Verse 2]
          Cm
I've been made Miss Rheingold, 
though I never touch beer
Gm
  And I'm the person to whom they 
say, "You're sweet, My Dear."
F
 The only etchings I've seen have 
been behind glass
        G7                         
And the closest I've been to a bar,
        Cm
 was at ballet class


[Verse 3]
C
Prim and proper, the girl who's 
never been kissed
    Gm                         
I'm tired of being pure and not 
         Cm
chased
                              Gm
Like something that seeks its level
Continues after the ad
                  Ab
I wanna go to the devil


[Refrain]
           Fm  Cm        G
I wanna be evil, I wanna spit tacks
           C                  G   
I wanna be evil, and cheat at 
    C
jacks
           Fm    C              G
I wanna be wicked, I wanna tell lies
           C                   Fm
I wanna be mean, and throw mud pies


[Verse 4]
          Bbm7           Db7
I want to wake up in the morning
         Ab7
With that   dark brown taste
G
 I want to see some dissipation in 
my face
           Fm  Cm           G
I wanna be evil, I wanna be mad
              C7             Fm
But more than that I wanna be  bad


[Verse 5]
           Ebm7               Fm
I wanna be evil, and trump an ace
        Ab7
Just to see my partner's face
           Ebm7             Fm
I wanna be nasty, I wanna be  cruel
           Ab7                   
I wanna be daring, I wanna shoot 
Eb7
pool
           Eb7
And in the theatre
         Gb7      Eb
I want to  change my seat
Ab7
Just so I can step on

Everybody's feet


[Refrain]
           Dbm7               F7
I wanna be evil, I wanna hurt flies
             Eb7
I wanna sing songs like the guy who 
cries
           Ebm7                  
I wanna be horrid, I wanna drink 
F7
booze
                  G                
And whatever I've got I'm eager to 
Eb7
lose


[Tag]
           Abm7         Ebm7     Eb7
I wanna be evil, little evil me
                 Eb7     B7  Bb7  
Just as mean and evil as I   can  
Eb7
be
