"I'm Alice" lyrics

I know what you want, I know what you need
Something unworldly from another breed
Created just for your lust with exquisite control
A thing you can trust to satisfy your soul
It takes more than a mask to make more than a thrill
To complete that task, it takes special skill
A little bit of this and just a sprinkle of that
With a dagger and a cane and a silk top hat

Oh
I know you're lookin' for a real good time
Oh
So let me introduce you to a friend of mine

I'm Alice
I'm the master of madness, the sultan of surprise
I'm Alice
So don't be afraid, just look into my eyes, oh yeah

They hang me from the gallows and they chop off my head
But like Lazarus rising, I come back from the dead
The shameless pretenders have come and they've gone
But I stand here before you and the legend lives on

It's a myth, wrapped in glory that they don't understand
Oh
The fabulous story of who I really am

I'm Alice
The master of madness, the father of fright
I'm Alice
I'm yours forever, but you're mine tonight, oh yeah

For a slice of heaven in this living hell
Come and be with the me that you know so well
For a slice of heaven in this living hell
Come and be with the me that you know so well
For a slice of heaven in this living hell
Come and be with the me that you know so well
For a slice of heaven in this living hell
Come and be with the me that you know so well

I accept your adoration and I revel in your fear
But it's your imagination that has brought you here
So here's the revelation and let me make it clear
That I am your creation and now I disappear

I'm Alice
I'm the master of madness, the sultan of surprise
I'm Alice
So don't be afraid, just look into my eyes
I'm Alice
The master of madness, the father of fright
I'm Alice
I'm yours forever, but you're mine tonight, oh yeah
