[Verse 1]
You consider me the young apprentice
Caught between the Scylla and Charibdis
Hypnotized by you if I should linger
Staring at this ring around your finger
I have only come here seeking knowledge
Things they would not teach me of in college
I can see the destiny that you sold
Turning into a shining band of gold
[Chorus 1]
I'll be wrapped around your finger
I'll be wrapped around your
I'll be wrapped around your finger
I'll be wrapped around your
[Verse 2]
Mephistopheles is not your name
But I know what you're up to just the same
I will listen hard to your tuition
And you will see it come to its fruition
[Chorus 1]
I'll be wrapped around your finger
I'll be wrapped around your
I'll be wrapped around your finger
I'll be wrapped around your
[Verse 3]
Devil and the deep blue sea behind me
Vanished into the air, you'll never find me
I will turn your face to alabaster
Then you'll find your servant is your master
[Chorus 2]
And you'll be wrapped around my finger
I'll be wrapped around your
You'll be wrapped around my finger
I'll be wrapped around your
[Outro]
You'll be wrapped around my finger
I'll be wrapped around your
You'll be wrapped around my finger
I'll be wrapped around your finger
You'll be wrapped around my finger
I'll be wrapped around your
You consider me the young apprentice
Caught between the Scylla and Charibdis
Hypnotized by you if I should linger
Staring at this ring around your finger
I have only come here seeking knowledge
Things they would not teach me of in college
I can see the destiny that you sold
Turning into a shining band of gold
[Chorus 1]
I'll be wrapped around your finger
I'll be wrapped around your
I'll be wrapped around your finger
I'll be wrapped around your
[Verse 2]
Mephistopheles is not your name
But I know what you're up to just the same
I will listen hard to your tuition
And you will see it come to its fruition
[Chorus 1]
I'll be wrapped around your finger
I'll be wrapped around your
I'll be wrapped around your finger
I'll be wrapped around your
[Verse 3]
Devil and the deep blue sea behind me
Vanished into the air, you'll never find me
I will turn your face to alabaster
Then you'll find your servant is your master
[Chorus 2]
And you'll be wrapped around my finger
I'll be wrapped around your
You'll be wrapped around my finger
I'll be wrapped around your
[Outro]
You'll be wrapped around my finger
I'll be wrapped around your
You'll be wrapped around my finger
I'll be wrapped around your finger
You'll be wrapped around my finger
I'll be wrapped around your
