lyrics

Behind their smiles
Are tiny little crocodiles
Waiting to do, do, do me in

Beware of those
Who only can speak so sweet
Their words are like honey true
Dripping with bees

Your words are like
Windows without any screens
I will fall fall fall to my death
No one will ever hear me scream
Your kindness is obscene

Never trust the nice ones, ohhhhh

Everything can’t always be
As nice as you’d like to believe
We’re not all actors here
And this is not your TV screen

So why am I forced to stand
Behind this green screen
And pretend that I do not see
The monster coming for me

I know that sounds so silly
So crazy, so crazy of me
But my imagination can’t help
But make you a little more scary
Than you ought to be, than you ought to be to me

Never trust the nice ones, ohhhhh

I have known lots of people like you in my life
I say good grief to you all I don’t like any sugar with my spice
Oh I’m so gracious, more than I really should be
More gracious than any body's ever been to me

Never trust the nice ones, ohhhhh
