Story of a Villain

I've always wanted something
Something big for me
The world was mine for the taking
I wanted it all you see

I wasn't afraid to work
To lie, cheat and steal
People loved me out of fear
It was blind but had appeal

Villain and proud
I'll shout it loud
So all you hero's come and get me

You see they get the fame
And we get the shame
I think I'm in the wrong occupation

All you hero's go away
I wish you'd disappear
It's because of you I'm a monster
When I started as the victim here

I'm tired of always losing
My confidence is at a low
Maybe I need a change
But being a villain is all I know

See me for what I am
The fire and evil in my eyes
You can trust me I'm predictable
A mix of evil and lies

Do you know what I get
When I try to make the world ideal
Some hero trying to kill me
Every week they try to kill me
They don't even know me
How do you think that makes me feel

If I try to change
I'd be something that I'm not
I guess I'm just a villain
A dirty rotten villain
I'll always be a villain
Because it's all I got

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I wrote this as a song for year 9 music class (2006). All the songs were about good guys and love sick girls. I wanted to hear a bad guys story, the side of a villain and so I wrote this. I hope you enjoy :)
