My family has disowned me My wife and son have left me My brother's dead Trust me I fully appreciate the seriousness of my situation But I promise you I won't spend a single second in a courtroom I understand you
Let me tell you what's gonna happen Soon there's gonna be a knock on that door And you will be called outside In the hall there will be a man who outranks you First, he'll compliment you on the fine job you've done That you're making the world a safer place That you're to receive a commendation and a promotion And then he's going to tell you that I am to be released
You're going to protest You'll probably threaten to resign But in the end I will be released You call me evil But unfortunately for you, I'm a necessary evil
I'm a necessary evil [2x]
