And the world puts on a new face
Certain things rearrange
And this whole world seems like a new place

Oh yeah, secretly I’ve been trailin’ you
Like a fox that prays on the rabbit
I had to get you and so I knew
I had to learn your ways and your habits

Ooooh, you were the catch that I was after
But I looked up, and I was in your arms
And I knew I had been captured

What’s this whole world comin’ to
Things just ain’t the same
Anytime the hunter…
Gets captured by the game

Oh yeah!!
(The bridge or just music)

Oh yeah, I had laid such a tender trap
Hoping you might fall into it
But love hit me like a sudden slap
One kiss, and then I knew it

Ooooh, my plan didn’t work out like I thought
I had laid my trap for you
But it seems that I got caught
