The Executioner

The crowd demands me, the executioner.
They need my power they need my deadly skill
The law commands me, the executioner
And when they ask me to i will kill
Cardinals and popes i take
Emperors and magistrates
You are nothing whoever you may be!
Who do you want to burn tell me!
Who do you want to set on fire
Who do you want to burn you all need me don’t you see
Who do you want to burn tell me!
When do i go to light the pyre
Who do you want to burn you can leave it all to me.
Here i am king, so say goodbye to life
Here’s hope cut short and here’s where beauty ends
The rack and chain the thumbscrew and the knife
They’re my support they are my friends
Prissoners who won’t confess
Feel the ironmaiden press
Then they sing like blackbirds in a tree!
Who do you want to burn tell me!
I am a tool of your desire
Who do you want to burn you all need me don’t you see
Who do you want to burn
I’m the angel of death you all can hire
Who do you want to burn you can leave it all to me.
(May your soul burn in hell…)
Who do you want to burn tell me!
I am a tool of your desire
Who do you want to burn you all need me don’t you see
Who do you want to burn
I’m the angel of death you all can hire
Who do you want to burn you can leave it all to me.
Set on fire, you all need me don' t you see
Who do you want to burn tell me
When do i go to light the purr
Who do you want to burn
You can leave it all to me
