Jeff Wayne
Bitter and Twisted
The psychopath never takes a bath
'Cause he'll wash away his hate
And we crowd and bark in the damp and dark
As old Scrooge comes through the gate

They whisper in the hall, and he rattles at the door
As I smile behind the blind
Because I'm leavin' soon, you can keep your dirty room
And your dirty screwed-up mind

Don't pop in, it's a deadly sin
If you're livin' in fear of Hell
Hearts beat fast, as he stops to crash
Hear the stories he has to tell

You can try to frighten me
You can think whatever you like
You can try to fetter me
'Cause I'm coiled and ready to strike

All your life you've toed the line
Never dreamed and never resisted
Now you're running out of time
All you ever feel is bitter and twisted

Hey, bitter
Twisted
Bitter
Twisted, twisted
Bitter
Twisted
Bitter
Twisted, twisted
The businessman puts a shaky hand
Through the space beneath the wall (Bitter, twisted)
Where a lonely queen is a sex machine
Just to answer Nature's call (Bitter, twisted)

The first man's wife holds a kitchen knife
But she can't stand the sight of blood (Bitter, twisted)
So she takes her pills, and he's always ill
And they both dream of super studs

Getting off on guilty minds
Turning on to what's not allowed
Nothing real or nothing kind
Tell me how you'll ever feel proud

All your life you've lived a lie
All closed up, the way you existed
Now you're running out of time
All you ever feel is bitter and twisted
