The Evening's Prey
You're looking off across the room
Your target walks into the lobby
You can't help but look
That suit is just too damn gaudy
All will be well once this is done
To save yourself
As well as the next one
Done right, this will be a work of art
Your beauty hides an assassin's heart
The truth is that your eyes confide
Something most would try to hide
The thoughts that come across your mind
Very few would wish to find
Sizing up the evening's prey
Dreaming how to make him pay
In such an evil clever way
Laughing as you get away
The cause of your is tears
Is based on your fears
And something that you missed
That goes back for years
He saw this in you when he called you dear
Twist you up and left you hurting something fierce
The truth is that your eyes confide
Something most would try to hide
The thoughts that come across your mind
Very few would wish to find
Sizing up the evening's prey
Dreaming how to make him pay
In such an evil clever way
Laughing as you get away
A plan is formed with potential
Testing nervous tensile
Smile and don't look resentful
Although the feelings are torrential
But keeping it cool is essential
Time to prove your mettle
Greet him sweetly, calm and gentle
And make it all look accidental
The truth is that your eyes confide
Something most would try to hide
The thoughts that come across your mind
Very few would wish to find
Sizing up the evening's prey
Dreaming how to make him pay
In such an evil clever way
Laughing as you get away
The truth is that your eyes confide
Something most would try to hide
The thoughts that come across your mind
Very few would wish to find
Sizing up the evening's prey
Dreaming how to make him pay
In such an evil clever way
Laughing as you get away
Your target walks into the lobby
You can't help but look
That suit is just too damn gaudy
All will be well once this is done
To save yourself
As well as the next one
Done right, this will be a work of art
Your beauty hides an assassin's heart
The truth is that your eyes confide
Something most would try to hide
The thoughts that come across your mind
Very few would wish to find
Sizing up the evening's prey
Dreaming how to make him pay
In such an evil clever way
Laughing as you get away
The cause of your is tears
Is based on your fears
And something that you missed
That goes back for years
He saw this in you when he called you dear
Twist you up and left you hurting something fierce
The truth is that your eyes confide
Something most would try to hide
The thoughts that come across your mind
Very few would wish to find
Sizing up the evening's prey
Dreaming how to make him pay
In such an evil clever way
Laughing as you get away
A plan is formed with potential
Testing nervous tensile
Smile and don't look resentful
Although the feelings are torrential
But keeping it cool is essential
Time to prove your mettle
Greet him sweetly, calm and gentle
And make it all look accidental
The truth is that your eyes confide
Something most would try to hide
The thoughts that come across your mind
Very few would wish to find
Sizing up the evening's prey
Dreaming how to make him pay
In such an evil clever way
Laughing as you get away
The truth is that your eyes confide
Something most would try to hide
The thoughts that come across your mind
Very few would wish to find
Sizing up the evening's prey
Dreaming how to make him pay
In such an evil clever way
Laughing as you get away
