Permit me to introduce myself, the name is Mr. Kicks
I dwell in the dark dominion, way down by the River Styx
The devil has sent me here, because I'm full of wicked tricks
And I'm such a popular fellow among all you lunatics
I teach a course in ruination from the devil's text
To fools who can't withstand temptation, step right up, you're next
I hail from a hot old hell-hole down along the River Styx
Allow me to introduce myself, the name is Mr. Kicks
ย
Now when an old wolf starts a-prowlin'
Out among the young lambs howlin'
Don't you know he's lookin' for kicks?
And when a young cat full of sly tricks
Spends his evenings chasin' fly chicks
Ten to one he's lookin' for kicks
Yeah, kicks is always in demand
'Cause kicks is full of fun and laughter
Lots of folks get out of hand
'Cause it's only kicks they're after
Shady lady and her lover, circulatin' undercover
She knows sin and virtue don't mix
Her mama raised her prim and proper
But now, wild horses couldn't stop her
When she's on a mad hunt for kicks
ย
Yeah, kicks is always in demand
'Cause kicks is full of fun and laughter
Lots of folks get out of hand
'Cause it's only kicks they're after
I'm Satan's sinful servant, sent to get you in a fix
So look me up just any time
The name is Mr., name is Mr., name is Mr. Kicks
