Beautiful Stranger

Sung by

The Twin and Ms Merrywood


Lyrics

Twin

Reckless creatures
Always want another find
Stealing features,
Each a diamond to be mined

There are facets at stake
And crooks in our necks
We're like moths to the flame
Get ready and set
Now tarry no longer
Let's burn one another
We're one and we're twain
Now, let's play a game

Twin (as Merrywood)

Hello, hello, hello
Beautiful stranger
How familiar the danger
Slipping into the shadows

'Tis true, 'tis true, 'tis true
Celebrities always do
Us and our shadows, too
Us and our shadows

High stakes, three shakes, no breaks
Triple the wager
Three clicks in the chamber
Three chances to claim her

By the book, by hook, by rook
Shadow takes all, my pet
My, what a strange duet
Shadow takes all

Cunning creatures
Slither front and slither back
Double dealers
Double-up for the attack

I could say that I'm hurt
But it wouldn't be true
The knife in my back
It reminds me of you
You're my beautiful stranger
The game is afoot
It's the shadow's domain
So don't pussyfoot
Shoot!
