Listen to it
That's how they see it!
They say... they say,
They say... they say it!
They say you're nothing but a pretender
That you bear the mark of the sinner
And they pray you won't do wrong again
They predict every beginning has an end
Do you know it?... they say it!
Listen to it... how they talk about you
Listen to it... how they talk
There goes the ruffian, goes the ruffian, ruffian
They say there's nothing left that can do you good
They say no one can follow your path
They tried witchcraft,
To save themselves from agony
To avoid seeing you,
They turned to Saint Death
Listen to it... how they talk about you
Listen to it... how they talk
There goes the ruffian, goes the ruffian, ruffian
Listen to it... how they talk about you
Listen to it... how they talk
There goes the ruffian, goes the ruffian, ruffian
They say it!... they say it!... they say it!... they say it!
They tried witchcraft,
To save themselves from agony
To avoid seeing you,
They turned to Saint Death
Listen to it... how they talk about you
Listen to it... how they talk
There goes the ruffian, goes the ruffian, ruffian
Listen to it... how they talk about you
(They say it!)
Listen to it... how they talk!
