A Wicked Something

I strut down the street awash in panache 
All silk and polish and reeking of cash 
A confident smile that says I know 
I'm the cock of the walk wherever I go 

A tip of my hat and the ladies sigh 
And some men too, if you're that kind of guy 
Never need reservations, no matter the place 
I can go anywhere, just by showing my face
 
The main thing that I've got to say 
Is a wicked something comes this way 

Yes if you need something, I'm the guy to inform 
'Specially something outside of the norm 
Information or weapons or illicit fun 
Satisfaction guaranteed, I'll get the job done 

If arms need to be twisted or lessons be taught 
Or arson makes real estate easier bought 
The price ain't high to re-wire your fate 
Just a contract for a favor at a later date 

The main thing that I've got to say 
Is a wicked something comes this way 

Or if you need a job, I'm the man to see 
Got all sorts of labor need doin' for me 
If you're not squeamish, and like good pay 
Why I can put you to work right now, today 

Loyalty is what I value my friend 
Just keep you mouth shut and hold up your end 
I'll take good care of you, I'm the very best boss
 But I'm NOT!...a fellow that you want to cross 

The main thing that I've got to say 
Is a wicked something comes this way 

(Sing it after me now:) 
Boot doodley oo-dah 
Wah wah wah wah 
Skeet'n deet'n hoo-rah 
Babba doo bow 
(Very nice) 

Some say I'm the Devil, or I get his jobs done 
Some say he works for me, I kinda like that one 
But man or demon, whichever is true, 
Tell me, what can I do for you? 

The main thing that I've got to say 
Is a wicked something comes this way 
Something wicked this way comes
