Context: When midnight's done, and the day won't start,
And all I ever gave you was a broken heart,
It's hard to admit but it's easy to tell
That evil is alive and well.

Almost never does it have a name,
It maybe has a pitchfork, maybe has a tail,
But evil is alive and well.”

Se spesso nuoce, anco talvolta giova.
