Deep in the city of hallowed ground
Everybody knows what's going down
Everybody knows but nobody talks
About the ways of the dancin' fox

Well it's a long story, too long to tell
If you haven't been there, babe it's just as well
Everybody's seen him once or twice
Seen the wickedness of his lies

Oh, oh, the dancin' fox
He'll creep up in your life
And baby, sew you up
He'll tell that he loves you
But don't you believe
It's just a wicked web of deceit

There's a little boy, lying in the street
So far from home, chains on his feet
Fox says, dance, he says, no
So they push him to the floor

There's a little girl, I know well
Got big love, doesn't know this world
Fox says, dance, she says, fine
You know he'll get her every time

Oh, oh, the dancin' fox
He'll creep up in your life
And baby, sew you up
He'll tell that he loves you
But don't you believe
It's just a wicked web that he weaves

Well no one quite knows where he hides
Some say the gutter or penthouse in the sky
Well I don't know but I've been told
He lives in our mind and he's after our soul

Oh, oh, the dancin' fox
He'll creep up in your life
And baby, sew you up
He'll tell that he loves you
But don't you believe
It's just a wicked web of deceit

So,deep in the city of hallowed ground
Everybody knows what's going down
Everybody knows but nobody talks
About the ways of the dancin' fox

Oh, oh, the dancin' fox
He'll creep up in your life
And baby, sew you up
He'll tell that he loves you
But don't you believe
It's just a wicked web of deceit
