Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Catch the flame now, eye to eye
Don't let chances pass you by
Always someone at your back
Biding their time for attack
[Verse 2]
Check for decoys, stay sharp-edged
Double-crossers get your head
Carpetbaggers bluff and strike
Kiss of Judas, spider-like
[Instrumental]
Lead: K.K.
[Verse 3]
Waiting like jackals
To sneak up and trick you
Wolves in sheep's clothing
So deft in consoling
[Verse 4]
Lurking in shadows
They pounce least expected
When you come to
They'll have gone right through you
[Verse 5]
Tricksters, jilters, play their game
Sleight-of-handers, all the same
Masquerader in his lair
Wants to tangle in your hair
