[Verse] You put on your daft armor You are a real snake charmer You walk away from poison As though it never touched your lips [Prechorus] Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey A gesture and a steel smile A coiling cold reptile A swagger in your stride As if you got nothin’ to hide You weave and wander through the crowd A rising fire blazing loud So infuriating to see And yet I’m powerless to flee [Chorus] A certain someone on the prowl A secret hidden in a howl Don’t look away You gotta stay Get over here The mice will play You think I would have learned by now Don’t judge what you think is so foul “No more”, wish I could vow This is the remedy I take ... To get the sickness, uh huh Yeah, yeah, the sickness, uh huh [Verse 2] I try to blow out the flame It’s always been just the same I step into the sprung jaws Just to feel the pain all over again Along the yellow brick road Lions and tigers unfold Can I bear this anymore? Why, I say “No!” [Chorus] A certain someone on the prowl A secret hidden in a howl Don’t look away You gotta stay Get over here The mice will play You think I would have learned by now Don’t judge what you think is so foul “No more”, wish I could vow This is the remedy I take ... To get the sickness, uh huh Yeah, yeah, the sickness, uh huh [Outro] I look into your eyes I see you wear a disguise A brightened point of view But even seeing right through you The mystery I crave remains the same Oh, what a shame! [Prechorus] Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey [Chorus] A certain someone on the prowl A secret hidden in a howl Don’t look away You gotta stay Get over here The mice will play You think I would have learned by now Don’t judge what you think is so foul “No more”, wish I could vow This is the remedy I take ... To get the sickness, uh huh Yeah, yeah, the sickness, uh huh
