I rise dandy and gay, darling
Carelessly waving away the past
Shining against the cruel light
I am washed and anew
I am a surging black tide
Strutting between smoky darkness
Wearing a harlequin dress
Bathing in the light of the dew
I am femme, and I am fatale
Follow me down the winding corridor
Twisting, snarling, enticing, enthralling
Into the land where flames brew

I rise dandy and gay, darling
Carelessly waving away the past
Shining against the cruel light
I am washed and anew
I am a surging black tide
Strutting between smoky darkness
Wearing a harlequin dress
Bathing in the light of the dew
I am femme, and I am fatale
Follow me down the winding corridor
Twisting, snarling, enticing, enthralling
Into the land where flames brew
