A Super Villian Love Story

And crocodiles too
Get inside for a coffee
Lukewarm ivory pool
The kids play with lasers
Until the lions den's hush
We skip across trapdoors
Cameras trace every touch
We've seen the northpole
Car chases 'till clutch
We met playing tennis
I think we courted enough
Strange ways, can't reform 'em
No glitter, no glue
Every hero needs a villian
But lovers needed too
I've been uneasy seeing messages
From strange numbered contacts
But world domination
Is acquired taste I ain't object
So when your honour student son
Liked my chess princesses
I settled in these differences
Had a share of megalomaniacs
But you were the first brainiac
I served the papers to my majesty
In the middle of that covert op in the philippines
Where you destroyed that drug ring
The lack of narcotics in that line of work sure is something!
I felt safe
You let your mask down and lend it as a toy to my offspring
Any last words before we open up these cufflinks?
''I'm nervous''
Kissing down your stretch marks
Laying eyes on your savanna
You say you would love to open up these love handles like they were packages from santa
And there's a mole
I say it's a beauty spot
As you grab your robe
Red lights flashing
Goons rushing to the data centre
