Grimly fiendish
Plays the game that never plays
Sing out loud but never prayed

Grimly fiendish
Wears a coat that's black and long
He doesn't know that it's all wrong

Simply fiendish
a child caught in a grown up world
No lies convince the court

Once a week
I could be
found on the faces all the frowns

Hide and seek
Tried so hard to justify the crime for today
Just for today

Bad bad bad boy
Bad bad bad boy
Bad bad bad boy
Bad bad bad boy

Bad bad bad boy
Bad bad bad boy
Bad bad bad boy
Bad bad bad boy

Let me get the story straight
You never gave me a break
It's a case of give and take
You didn't make me good you just painted me green
You made me part of your forgotten dream

Grimly fiendish
we'll send you just where you belong
Where the children can't be found

Hide and seek
Tried so hard
Tried so hard to justify the crime for today
Just for today

Bad bad bad boy
Bad bad bad boy
Bad bad bad boy
Bad bad bad boy

Bad bad bad boy
Bad bad bad boy
Bad bad bad boy
Bad bad bad boy
