Would You Be Famous

If you’re destined to be famous 
would you take it 
If being distinctly heinous 
Is how you make it 
Not a Sinatra or Monroe 
but a Hitler or Mussolini 
instigate an all time low 
death pain and misery 
Power mad to the bone 
Abusing humanity 
Famous but alone 
For the authority 
What’s fame if you’re evil 
Dangerous mad and lethal 
Admiration of the people 
Mentally weak and feeble 
Hitler was destined 
So was Churchill 
Fame your destination 
Would you still?
