Lyrics

Charles Montgomery Burns:

Don't really care for chasing women

Never was keen on booze

Don't take cocaine or "Mary-Jane"

No, I get drunk on boos!

Eh, that's "b-o-o-s", not "z-e" as before.

Bart Simpson:

Uh... We get it..!

Charles Montgomery Burns:

Because...

You've got to love to be hated

Find the good in being bad

Oh, the crowd is full of gentlemen

But they've paid to see the cad

Yes it's a hoot, a kick, a gas

When you're the villain of the show

Once you wear black you never go back

It's a-high to be loathed

Chucky, Stalin, Megatron

Eric Cartman, Donkey Kong

Vader, Nader, Simon Legree

Terminators 1, 2 and 3

Iago, Joker, Voldemort

McEnroe on center court

Mr. Burns and Skeletor

Keep your good guys, what a snore

When it's your head they wanna sever

And your blood they wanna shed

You know you're gonna live forever

If everybody wants you dead

So listen up because I'm givin'

The best advice you'll ever know

So feel the thrill, I know you will

It's a-high to be loa-

-thed!
