The crowd demands me, the executioner. They need my power they need my deadly skill The law commands me, the executioner And when they ask me to i will kill Cardinals and potentates Emperors and magistrates You are nothing whoever you may be! Who do you want to burn tell me! Who do you want to set on fire Who do you want to burn you all need me don't you see Who do you want to burn tell me! When do i come to light the pyre Who do you want to burn you can leave it all to me. Here i am king, so say goodbye to life Here's hope cut short and here's where beauty ends The rack and chain the thumbscrew and the knife They're my support they are my friends Prissoners who won't confess Feel the ironmaiden press Then they sing like blackbirds in a tree! Who do you want to burn tell me! I am a tool of your desire Who do you want to burn you all need me don't you see Who do you want to burn I'm the angel of death you all can hire Who do you want to burn you can leave it all to me. (May your soul burn in hell...) Who do you want to burn tell me! I am a tool of your desire Who do you want to burn you all need me don't you see Who do you want to burn I'm the angel of death you all can hire Who do you want to burn you can leave it all to me. Set on fire, you all need me don' t you see Who do you want to burn tell me When do i come to light the pyre Who do you want to burn You can leave it all to me
