  • In dreams I can rule your life
    With me nothing's ever right
    Sing for me up on a stage
    Keep your mind trapped in a cage
    I'm you man I'm what you need
    Dance with me but never lead
    One deep breath will set me free
    Don't you fuckin' look at me
    You know that I am...

    One fuckin' well dressed man !
    Now it's dark, but I can see
    Don't you fuckin' look at me
    Now it's dark, your gonna be
    Exactly what I want to see
    Now it's dark, Mommy
    Don't you fuckin' look at me

    A sensation
    Of elation
    Intoxication
    Now it's dark

    A candy coated existence
    Underneath is decadence
    What was hidden you have found
    Made it your own battleground
    Pretty, pretty, don't say please
    Don't you fuckin' look at me
    You know that I am...

    One fuckin' well dressed man !
    Now it's dark, but I can see
    Don't you fuckin' look at me
    Now it's dark, your gonna be
    Exactly what I want to see
    Now it's dark, Mommy
    Don't you fuckin' look at me

    A sensation
    Of elation
    Intoxication
    Now it's dark

    I'll send you a love letter
    Straight from the bottom of my heart
    You'll be fucked forever
    The candy coated clown's done his part

    I'm your man I'm what you need
    Dance with me but never lead
    One deep breath will set me free
    Don't you fuckin' look at me
    You know that I am...

    One fuckin' well dressed man !
    Now it's dark, but I can see
    Don't you fuckin' look at me
    Now it's dark, your gonna be
    Exactly what I want to see
    Now it's dark, Mommy
    Don't you fuckin' look at me

    A sensation
    Of elation
    Intoxication
    Now it's dark
    Now it's dark
