Alive!
Dead!
I was inside your head!
Had time well spent, I got your mind well bent
Snuck back into shade
Oooooooooooooooooooo
You searched the globe for them perfect looks
And you searched for answers in all your books
And finally by diabolic ascent here I am
Said it's just a diabolic
A diablolic scheme
Diabolic scheme
Said it's just a diabolic
A diabolic scheme
Diabolic scheme
That's me all right, like purity white, and like viciousness black
I give a little then I take it back
Can you take it?
Ooooooooooooooooo can you take it?
Yeah!!
Oooooooooo
So what's the attraction?
The suckers sing
Prolific depth or static cling?
Well from greatness to greatness is where I span
You have me for a moment grab on while you can
Said it's just a diabolic
A diabolic scheme
Diabolic scheme
Said it's just a diabolic
A diabolic scheme
Diabolic scheme
Oooo, oooo, oooooooo oo ooo
Oooo, oooo, oooooooo oo ooo
Thank you!
