Bad, Wicked World

Frank Black

Bad, wicked world

Bad, wicked world

They are about dressed to deceive

Conquistadores that have been sent

Bad, wicked world

Bad, wicked world

Some sell him out, some won't believe

An architect named David Vincent



A man too long without sleep

He took a wrong turn and people just laughed

A ship that is not there

But he knows that it was

It made a light and a buzz

He's really hurt because

People don't care

People think he's a creep

He will not stop, he keeps on talking

Just a tie and a suit

He's a lonely persuader

Fist-throwing crusader

Against invaders

Won't be mute



Bad, wicked world

Bad, wicked world

Some sell him out, some won't believe

An architect named David Vincent



Bad, wicked world

Bad, wicked world

They are about dressed to deceive

Conquistadores that have been sent



About once a week

Another story has leaks and he's on it

Just a suit and a tie

Will it ever end?

He hasn't got a friend

Pinkies that won't bend

He really must try



Bad, wicked world

Bad, wicked world

Some sell him out, some won't believe

An architect named David Vincent
