Cruel
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Body and soul-an animal
As a sword-swing double edged
Dig deep down-that monthly frown
You have the tools-to make men fools
Cleopatra-the rat catcher
Preambling-eyeball shopping
You're measuring-your next victim
Too good to be sin-far too entertaining
She said the most evil thing
I can do
Is to give my body to you
In silhouette-the suffragette
Behind the scenes-the deadly schemes
Your best nightmare-without a prayer
>From ship to shore-paramour l'amour
Inside our head-22 lead
The modern miss-with modern gifts
In tragedy-hilarity
Never sin-far too entertaining
