Everybody wants you but I'm the one who's takin' you home Knew it from the minute our eyes met from across the room All thrust and parry, all pretense of resistance, will be just formalities Lips will mingle, limbs entangle, forces lead us inexorably Everybody's watchin' our story of seduction unfold Every little signal from the tender to the tempting to the bold Here on the dance floor we're makin' love, standing up, with all our clothes on Think this is delicious, just you wait til I get you alone I've seen you cast a net of allure that no one can slip through Gather them in, throw them back one by one Who's it gonna be tonight Everybody wants you, that's what gives you the right Ain't that right Everybody's wishin' I'd vanish into thin air Give the other girl -- or guy -- a chance I ain't goin' nowhere This is my once in a lifetime, planets have aligned as they were meant to do You're the one I've waited for cuz, baby... everybody wants me, too This is my once in a lifetime, planets have aligned as they were meant to do You're the one I've waited for cuz, baby... everybody wants me, too Everybody wants you but I'm the one who's takin' you home Everybody wants you but I'm the one who's takin' you home Everybody wants you but I'm the one who's takin' you home Takin' you home... takin' you home...

Cinderella Hellfire came from the shabby part of town nobody was the wiser when she wore that borrowed gown She saw the prince was smitten with her It was no accident she left behind the slipper Yeah cause Cinderella Hellfire she wasn't raised on fairy tales Carnival, palace hall, some principles prevail At the stroke she bolted out the door for she'd been taught Always leave 'em wanting more And cause she knew she wouldn't wait long for the other shoe to drop A man who's never been denied is impossible to stop Oh she was coy when he came knockin' As she shyly slid her skirt to show her stockin' You know I hate like hell to tell ya her little spell turned to a curse Got just what she wished for and found that nothing could be worse Seems the prince had failed to mention The pedestal would double as a prison Come on now smile and look lovely that's all we require But she wants to be known now, not just admired Cinderella Hellfire she burned the castle to the ground Lived out her days in exile selling the jewels from her crown She was a desperate woman and a crook Not the precious little paper doll from your storybook
