Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Everyday things change
And the world puts on a new face
Certain things rearrange
And this whole world seems like a new place
[Verse 2]
Oh, yeah, secretly I've been trailin' you
Like a fox that preys on a rabbit
I had to get you and so I knew
I had to learn your ways and habits
[Verse 3]
Ooh, you were the catch that I was after
But I looked up and I was in your arms
And I knew I had been captured
[Verse 4]
What's this whole world comin' to?
Things just ain't the same
Anytime the hunter gets captured by the game
Oh, yeah
[Verse 5]
Oh, yeah, I had laid such a tender trap
Hopin' you might fall into it
But love hit me like a sudden slap
One kiss and then I knew it
[Verse 6]
Ooh, my plan didn't work out like I thought
'Cause I had laid my trap for you
But it seems like I got caught
[Verse 7]
What's this whole world comin' to?
Things just ain't the same
Anytime the hunter gets captured by the game
Oh, yeah
Oh, yeah
