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
