Ah! Setting all the world on fire Gambling with man's desire Messing with their game of life Frisking on your fears Courting with my emanation Playing with the fools temptation Creating mass hysteria Corrupting all their peers My way of life is just a path of callous pride I set the eyes on those in dread And all the lies that penetrate into your minds Manifest to make a thousand strings upon your heads! I'm a Manic, Manic, Manic Man! Eradicating all I can I'm a Manic, Manic, Manic Man! Manic! The world is filled with cold corruption A hellish loop of mind destruction The devil laughs, anticipates And watches from the deep I whisper in thy ear with mischief Knowing that you'll be submissive Now go and male me omnipresent I gave you eyes to see! Your way of life is nothing but an endless ride A wave of envy, wrath and dread And all the lies that penetrate into your minds Manifest to make another string upon your head! I'm a Manic, Manic, Manic Man! Eradicating all I can I'm a Manic, Manic, Manic Man! Manic! Ah! My way of life is just a path of callous pride I set the eyes on those in dread And all the lies that penetrate into their minds Manifest to make a thousand strings upon your heads I'm a Manic, Manic, Manic Man! Eradicating all I can I'm a Manic, Manic, Manic Man! Manic! Ah! I'm a Manic, Manic, Manic Man!
