This cruel

Unusual masquerade (Mm-hmm)

If I can't see you (Mm-hmm)

We're not in the shade

Makin' love (Mm-hmm) with a stranger (*Mm-hmm*)

No one knows me (Mm-hmm)

I'm in danger (Mm-hmm)

And it creeps (Ah-ha!)

And it crawls (Oh, you never knew!)

And you— (Darling, please!)

You

You never saw behind the mask

And it scratches (Ooh!)

It claws (Oh, but of course!)

And you— (Tsk, tsk!)

You

You never saw behind the mask

People like me wanna turn off the lights (Click!)

Suckin' on Tizer, stressin' about time (Tick-tock, tick-tock)

There's some truths in life that just aren't yours (Oh no!)

You're itchin' (Ah!)

You're burnin' (Mmm!)

You're crawlin' the floors (Tsk, tsk, naughty thing!)

This livin'

It's so picturesque (Oh, divine!)

Paints me the dark shade of your respect (A masterpiece!)

Too close to my face (Careful, darling!)

So far from my heart (Oops, too late!)

You look

You're surprised 'cause I played my part

And it creeps (Ah-ha!)

And it crawls (Oh, you never knew!)

And you— (*Darling, please!*)

You

You never saw behind the mask

And it scratches (Ooh!)

It claws (Oh, but of course!)

And you— (Tsk, tsk!)

You

You never saw behind the mask

And it creeps (It knows your name!)

And it crawls (Oh, what a shame!)

And you— (Darling, hush!)

You

You never saw behind the mask

And it scratches (Close your eyes!)

It claws (Oh, what a surprise!)

And you— (Tsk, tsk!)

You

You never saw behind the mask

The truth's like a Russian doll (Layer by layer!)

Many, many layers (Oh, what a game!)

Some you can't control (Twist and turn!)

It's dehumanizin' (A lovely curse!)

Disguisin' my soul (You wanted more?)

Look,

You turn away (Shh!)

'Cause you played your role (Curtain falls...)
