Ol’ Evil Eye Lyrics

[Intro: Shaggy 2 Dope & Legz Diamond]
"Start the movie."
"I loved the old man. He had never wronged me. He had never given me insult, for his gold I had no desire. I think it was his eye. Yes, it was this. One of his eyes resembled that of a vulture. A pale, blue eye with a film over it. Whenever it fell upon me, my blood ran cold. And so, by degrees, very gradually, I made up my mind to take the life of the old man and thus rid myself of the eye forever."

[Verse 1: Violent J]
So I'm headed door to door with my grandmother's cookie jar
I'm sellin' cookies, twelve for a dollar
I ring the doorbell, nobody wants any
I'll resort to goin' cheaper, two for a penny
Anybody, everybody, they hate me
I can tell when they spit and degrade me
There's only one house left, the last on the block
Old Man Willie on the hilltop
I ring the doorbell, the door creeps open
And there it was, starin' and scopin'
The man's left eye, red, big, and drippin'
I was trippin'. "Ahh! See ya!"
I ran home. I couldn't stop thinking
About his eyeball winking and blinking
And that looked not a damn thing like the other, ugh!
Should've wore a patch on the motherfucker
It hypnotized me, mesmerized me
Traumatized, paralyzed, terrorized me
Creepers, where'd you get that ball
And tell me how it even fits in your skull
I want a big long knife to stick it in
I wanna lift up the eyelid and kick it in
He's gotta die. I want his eye buried in my backyard
It ain't hard, I'm killin' Old Evil Eye!

[Chorus]
Evil eye
Oh-oh-oh
Bitch gonna die, bitch gon' die
Die-die-diggy-die- knife in his eye
Evil eye
Oh-oh-oh

[Interlude: Legz Diamond]
"Now this is the point. You fancy me mad. Madmen know nothing. But you should've seen me. You should have seen how wisely I proceeded, with what caution, with what foresight, with what dissimulation I went to work. I was never kinder to the old man than during the whole week before I killed him."

[Verse 2: Shaggy 2 Dope]
A day gone past since I heard about J
Old man I'm finna slay, 'cause I don't fuckin' play
Anyway, I gotta do him in
Got a rusty revolver, put the silver bullets in
I'm plannin' on plantin' one right to his nugget
Down my drawers with the bucket. It's time to go, fuck it
I stuck it, up to his neck when he came to the door
I really didn't know what I was in for
First a cold ass-stare, no a gaze, no a stare
Kinda like there was no one there
How weird, my body froze with the blink of his eye
Evil eye, sendin' chills up my spine
What to do? What to do? I gotta try to break
I gotta try to make, my way to the gate
Wait, I can't move, I'm stuck to the ground
W-What the fuck was that? I think I heard a sound
Turned around, there it was, starin' at my face
This little old man's eye's making me a mental case
That's when I felt the pain deep inside
Deep inside, now his eye's open wide
I want a big long knife to stick it in
I wanna lift up his eyelid and kick it in
He's gonna die. I want his eye buried in my backyard
It ain't hard, I'm killin' Old Evil Eye!

[Chorus]
Evil eye
Oh-oh-oh
Bitch gonna die, bitch gon' die
Die-die-diggy-die- knife in his eye
Evil eye
Oh-oh-oh

[Interlude: Legz Diamond]
"That night it ceased. The old man was dead. I placed my hand on the heart and there for many minutes there was no pulsation. He was stone dead. His eye will trouble me no longer. His eye will trouble me no longer. No longer."

[Chorus]
Bitch gonna die, bitch gon' die
Die-die-diggy-die- knife in his eye (Oh-oh-oh)
Evil eye
Oh-oh-oh
Bitch gonna die, bitch gon' die
Die-die-diggy-die- knife in his eye (Oh-oh-oh)
Evil eye
Oh-oh-oh

[Outro]
Bitch gonna die, bitch gon' die (How'd you get that evil eye?)
Die-die-diggy-die- knife in his eye (Oh-oh-oh)
Evil eye (How'd it get so evil?)
Oh-oh-oh (Tell me. Tell me.)
Bitch gonna die, bitch gon' die (How'd you get that evil eye?)
Die-die-diggy-die- knife in his eye (Oh-oh-oh)
Evil eye (How'd it get so evil?)
Oh-oh-oh (Tell me. Tell me.)
(How'd you get that evil eye?)
(Oh-oh-oh)
Evil eye (How'd it get so evil?)
Oh-oh-oh (Tell me. Tell me.)
(How'd you get that evil eye?)
(Oh-oh-oh)
Evil eye (How'd it get so evil?)
Oh-oh-oh (Tell me. Tell me.)
Oh-oh-oh
