When the daylight's gone

She puts her war paint on

She takes no prisoners, you will be missing her

When night time turns to dawn

And when the moonlight comes

That's when she starts to run

She'll catch you standing still

When she comes in for the kill

She don't need no gun

Undercover, camouflage

Secrets, lies, and Sabotage

Never even saw her face, leaving with the entourage

She's got her war paint on

So she's alone again

Says its self defense

I'll never let it hurt cause I always hurt them first

You know its common sense

Undercover, camouflage

Secrets, lies, and Sabotage

Never even saw her face, leaving with the entourage

I don't wanna change your life, if I can take ya home tonight

Maybe we could slow it down, faster than the speed of light

Faster than the speed of light

She learned her lesson well

Don't go all natural

And never let them see the beauty underneath

Just keep it to yourself

She's got a heart of glass

Behind a make-up mask

I want to take it off and make the aching stop

Set her free at last

I don't wanna change your life, but if I could take you home tonight

Maybe we could slow it down, faster than the speed of light

Faster than the speed of light

She's lookin for a friend

She said: That's not the way this ends

But give me one more night til the morning light

And we can just pretend

Undercover, camouflage

Secrets, lies, and Sabotage

Never even saw her face, leaving with the entourage

I don't wanna change your life, but if I could take ya home tonight

Maybe we could slow it down, faster than the speed of light

So take your war paint off

Yeah, take your war paint off
