Harlequin! Lyrics

Love's a game I wanna play
In varied stages of decay
Never rotted in display

In amongst all the oddities
Attention was captured by me
Rattle the bars of my cage
Release me from these restraints
And despite my atrocities
You unlocked it, you set me free
Uh oh I've swallowed the key!
This should be entertaining

Tighten the rope
Where's my ring? I'm your master
Sword down your throat
Do you wanna breathe faster?
Dripping in kerosene
Fire breathe, contorting
Lust isn't deadly a sin
In the hymn of harlequin

He thinks himself my saviour
The fool doth runneth blind
A sort of bitter flavour
Will be his sweet demise

Let me take the wheel
Tie your body to the bulls eye
Sharp as a knife
Lick the blades as they fly by

I wanna spin it! Spin it!
I hope I win it! Win it!

Everyone gather round
Pin the blame on the clown!
Loves a game and you're the prize
Better luck next time!

Tighten the rope
Where's my ring? I'm your master
Sword down your throat
Do you wanna breathe faster?
Dripping in kerosene
Fire breathe, contorting
Lust isn't deadly a sin
In the hymn of harlequin

Entertain me
For an eternity
Preserving your body
You'll be my oddity

You'll be floating in formaldehyde
Cause of death? classified
Loves a game and you're the prize
And you're all out of lives

I hope you enjoyed the show
They're throwing roses, they cheer as the curtain closes
Excuse me for my verbossness, for fame is often the motive
One's a party but two's a crowd
So won't you take a bow?

Love's a game I wanna play
In varied stages of decay
Never rotted in display

Tighten the rope
Where's my ring? I'm your master
Sword down your throat
Do you wanna breathe faster?
Dripping in kerosene
Fire breathe, contorting
Lust isn't deadly a sin
In the hymn of harlequin
