Grimly Fiendish by The Damned Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 1985

Grimly fiendish
Plays the game that never pays
Sung out loud but never prayed

Grimly fiendish
Wears a coat that's black and long
He doesn't know that it's all wrong

Simply fiendish
A child caught in a grown up world
No lies convince the court

Once a week
I could be
Found on the faces all the frowns

Hide and seek
Tried so hard
And justify that crime could pay
Just for today
Bad lad, bad boy (x8)

Let me put the story straight
You never gave me a break
It's a case of give and take
You didn't make me good you just painted me green
You made me part of your forgotten dreams

Grimly fiendish
We'll send you just where you belong
Where the children can't be found

Hide and seek
Tried so hard
And justify that crime could pay
Just for today

Bad lad, bad boy (x16)
