Villainous Thing

Welcome, won't you come inside?
Oh I fear the passing year did not deserve you
By some devious design
Suddenly you're very near, as I prefer you
Soaked and shivered from the rain
You have always been a delicate disaster
Fine in fire and of frame
Me and you are overdue for fiendish laughter

Oh dear, let me see those smokey eyes
You're a villainous thing and we can't have you living a lie
Oh dear, let's remove those pretty clothes
You're a villainous thing and I don't think anyone knows

Waste no worry for the world
Let it be a tragedy of love and glory
While they wait by gates of pearl
We'll be building palaces in purgatory

Oh dear, let me see those smokey eyes
You're a villainous thing and we can't have you living a lie
Oh dear, let's remove those pretty clothes
You're a villainous thing and I don't think anyone knows

You'll find no ever after here
It's clear that isn't what you came for
I'll be your puckish puppeteer
On this delightful little detour

You'll find no ever after here
It's clear that isn't what you came for
I'll be your puppet-puppeteer
On this
On this
On this-

Oh dear, let me see those smokey eyes
'Cause you're a villainous thing and we can't have you living a lie
Oh dear, let's remove those pretty clothes
You're a villainous thing and I don't think anyone knows
