Hey sugar, I had that dream again

I saw you in your red crushed velvet suit

Longin' on my feather bed

A Cheshire Cat in yellow Beatle boots

Who's that stranger lying in your arms

Her fingers running down your tattooed chest

Valentino's crankin' up the charm

And it's comin' like a freight train

These pictures in my head

Hey Mister (Mister) Nickel Romeo (Nickel Romeo)

Everybody knows your name

Hey, hey Mister (Mister) tell me Mister

What's the game.

Falling, yes, she will fall

Your latest victim bites her lip and sighs

She'll do the nasty job for you

Incriminating kisses on the sly

All I remember how you get your kicks

Preying on the innocent at night

Strange desperation, ya gotta cop that fix

Makin' every little girl is keepin' you alive

Hey Mister (Mister) Nickel Romeo (Nickel Romeo)

Everybody knows your name

Hey, hey Mister (Mister) tell me Mister

What's the game.

Oh, Nickel Romeo, you got no shame.

Hey Mister (Mister) Nickel Romeo (Nickel Romeo)

Everybody knows your name

Hey, hey Mister (Mister) tell me Mister

What's the game.

Hey mister (Mister) Nickel Romeo (Nickel Romeo)

Everybody knows your name

Hey, hey Mister (yeah!) you're the master

Of this game.

Because you got no shame

I think I'm goin' insane

And you're to blame.
