[Verse 1]
The root of all evil
In a person with shiny eyes
And hair like a feather
Black leather and a charming smile
He'll touch you and burn you
And break you down to your core
Succumbing to evil

[Chorus]
Oh, Lucy, please
Quit taunting me
Oh, Lucy, please
Quit taunting, quit taunting
Quit taunting, quit taunting
Quit taunting, quit taunting
Quit taunting me
