Ready? No
Ready? No
Ready? No
Ready? Here we go

In the back of the theater where, I hid
I felt so safe, I did
I thought I was finally free
Till a young man said to me

It's me, the devil, I think we met before
You was on the altar, I was opening the door
It's me, Mephisto, your body's feeling low
Take a seat and welcome to the show

And so from the theater I fled
To an old French lady's bed
She crawled in the covers with me
Took her skin off then she said

Oh, I don't know if I wanna be this person
But I don't got anything else to do
So maybe I will just go and be that person
And that just might mean something to you

I always thought that you could've been that person
But what I think is seldom true
So maybe I will just have to be that person
And maybe I will make it through

Nice try, it's me, the devil, I think we met before
You was on the altar, I was opening the door
It's me, Mephisto, your body's feeling low
Take a seat and welcome to the show

I don't know if I wanna be this person
I don't got anything else to do
I don't know if I wanna be that person
Nice try, nice try, nice try

Nice try
It's me, the devil, I think we met before
You was on the altar, I was opening the door
It's me, Mephisto, your body's feeling low
Take a seat and welcome to the show
