Sick Bastard:

The girl was screaming

Go leave me alone

She was only 5 years old

She had done no wrong

Her mother had told her don´t talk to men

She´d ignored her advice

Never seen again

Sick bastard

Sick bastard

80 year old woman

Lying in her bed

Someone crept into her room

Left her for dead

He slashed her face

He broke her arm

Now in intensive care

Lying nearly dead

Sick bastard

Sick bastard

Why does he do it

Is he insane

Just what´s going on

Inside his tiny brain

Is he sick! Does he know what he´s done

One day they´ll catch him

Then we will see him burn

Sick bastard

Sick bastard

80 year old woman

Lying in her bed

Somebody broke into her room

Left her for dead

He cut her face, broke her arm

Now in intensive care

In a hospital bed
