Am
I come home from work
I see my little girl
G
She's crying on the floor
F                         G
She's been watching that TV

This ain't late no,
this ain't even dinner time
To show them things on that screen
What's wrong with you

Chorus:
            Am
You must be evil
            Am G
You must be evil
            F  G
You must be evil

Oh I know why you do it
You're just looking for sensation
You got a hold of something
You tell us that it's news

You don't have to show that stuff
Can't you show us some respect
You can tell us we don't need to see it
We don't need those cheap effects

Chorus:
You must be evil
You must be evil
I wish you were here

You don't have to show that stuff
You ain't fooling no-one
You made my little girl cry
I wish you were here

We all know why you do it
Sometimes you even slow it down
You're giving out some bad ideas here
I can't believe that you don't realise

Chorus:
You must be evil
You must be evil
Evil
Evil
You must be evil

You must be evil
You must be evil
