You tell just half the truth
you're pulling strings and pushing buttons
wheels are turning in your head
i know that you are up to something
in your mind a plan is hatching
behind your innocent disguise
you know i'm onto you
so you won't look me in the eyes

you are a mastermind - manipulate
it's all by your design - manipulate
you think that i am blind - manipulate
but i'm not far behind

you know just what you want
you know just how to get it
you are far too devious
you're clever though, i must admit it
you've got that killer instinct
you do what must be done
you've got your own agenda
you're looking out for number one

you are a mastermind - manipulate
it's all by your design - manipulate
you think that i am blind - manipulate
but i'm not far behind

i'm not perfect, i've done it too
but not nearly as much as you
as much as you

you are a mastermind - manipulate
it's all by your design - manipulate
you think that i am blind - manipulate
but i'm not far behind
