[Verse 1]
Paradise comes at a price
That I am not prepared to pay
What were we built for?
Could someone tell me please?

The good news is she can't have babies
And won't accept gifts from me
What are they for?
They'll just grow up
And break the laws you've loved

[Hook]
Take off your disguise
I know that underneath it's me
Who are you?
Ooh

[Verse 2]
Useless device, it won't suffice
I want a new game to play
When I am gone, it won't be long
Before I disturb you in the dark

And paradise comes at a price
That I am not prepared to pay
What were we built for?
Will someone tell me please?

[Hook]
Take off your disguise
I know that underneath it's me

[Instrumental]

Muse is an English rock band from Teignmouth, Devon, consisting of Matthew Bellamy (guitarist, keyboardist, singer, songwriter, middle of the picture), Christopher Wolstenholme (bassist, background vocalist, to the left of the picture), and Dominic Howard (drummer, to the right of the picture). They often infuse classical piano and strings (and sometimes even choirs) with catchy guitar and piano hooks.

Muse is mostly known due to their alternative genre of music and also their live performances.

Some have compared Muse to other bands such as Radiohead; Though this analogy has faded during past years since Muse has changed its taste.
