[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
Carpet baggers bluff and strike
Kiss of Judas spider-like

[Bridge]
Waiting like jackals
To sneak up and trick you
Wolves in sheeps' clothing
So deft in consoling
Lurking in shadows
They pounce least expected
When you come to
They'll have gone right through you

[Verse 3]
Tricksters, guilters
Play their game
Sleight of handers
All the same
[Verse 4]
Masquerader in his lair
Wants to tangle in your hair
