The Gentleman

what do you think of me
do you really want to see a piece of me that I hide
something that's hard to find
what's behind your smile
is it really worth my while
what's beneath your ton-bed skin open up and let me in

do you really want to feel something that is so unreal
do you really want to be the one and only one for me
when we go to sleep tonight
i'll have different goals in sight
tell you what you want to hear
have another drink my dear
i'm not going to try to hurt you
i'll be honest kind and true
i'll take you out and treat you right
like a decent man would do

now i got you in my grasp do not fear my checkered past
have you now begun to see this diabolic side of me
in your mind I'm always there I guess
you thought I really cared now it's time to say goodbye
you bit the hook
believed the lie
i'm not going to try to hurt you I'll be honest kind and true
i'll take you out and treat you right like a decent man would do

gonna modify my behavior to make you think I'm your savior
now that I'm inside your head
i'm gonna use you
probably abuse you
should have listened to what your mom said
i'm not going to try to hurt you
i'll be honest kind and true
i'll take you out and treat you right
like a decent man would do

yeah right!
