Song Lyrics

Grimly fiendish plays the game that never plays

Sing out loud but never prayed

Grimly fiendish wears a coat thats 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 find that crime could pay

Just for today



(chorus)

Bad bad bad boy (x8)



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



(chorus) (x2)



Hide and seek, tried so hard and just to find that crime could pay

Just for today

(chorus) (x16)
