lyrics
With my evil genius and your cruel charm
We’ll make the perfect team
With my love for chaos and your need to harm
and an elaborate scheme, we’ll be…
Supervillains
Supervillains with a deadly plan
Supervillains
We’ll hold the world in our hands
My eloquent insults and criminal mind
Will complement my callousness
My vulgar millions attracting our kind
Controlled with your hypnotic kiss
Your effortless glamour and close-fitting clothes
Will get the public on our side
But we’ll steal their money and destroy their homes
And in our underground lair we’ll hide. We’ll be…
Supervillains
Supervillains with a deadly plan
Supervillains
Holding the world in our hands
We’ll indulge our megalomania
We’ll take over the world
Two hearts, one goal
One world, controlled
World peace, on hold
(while we enjoy the spoils of our crimes)
Two minds, one thought
One world, distraught
Hard lessons, well taught
(as we enjoy the spoils of our crimes)
Supervillains
Supervillains with a deadly plan
Supervillains
Holding the world in our hands
Supervillains
The population will obey
Supervillains
Or we hit them with the death ray
We’ll indulge our megalomania
We’ll take over the world
We’ll take over the world
We’ll make the perfect team
With my love for chaos and your need to harm
and an elaborate scheme, we’ll be…
Supervillains
Supervillains with a deadly plan
Supervillains
We’ll hold the world in our hands
My eloquent insults and criminal mind
Will complement my callousness
My vulgar millions attracting our kind
Controlled with your hypnotic kiss
Your effortless glamour and close-fitting clothes
Will get the public on our side
But we’ll steal their money and destroy their homes
And in our underground lair we’ll hide. We’ll be…
Supervillains
Supervillains with a deadly plan
Supervillains
Holding the world in our hands
We’ll indulge our megalomania
We’ll take over the world
Two hearts, one goal

One world, distraught
Hard lessons, well taught

Supervillains
Supervillains with a deadly plan
Supervillains
Holding the world in our hands
Supervillains
The population will obey
Supervillains
Or we hit them with the death ray
We’ll indulge our megalomania
We’ll take over the world
We’ll take over the world

A Dark Adapted Heart recommends:
-
Perfectly described by someone else as 'Britney Spears singing with Nine Inch Nails'. Perfect pop-synth-joy-misery-singalongs that feel like metal even though there are no guitars. Ace videos too.

The Tyranny Of Inaction
by Rosetta StoneA stone cold classic goth-industrial album chock full of brilliant songs. Can't recommend it enough.
go to album -
Lay There & Drown / The Hole (single)
by the WeepLovely, gnarly tom-driven 90s-style goth but better. Great lyrics; great vocals. Sounds a bit like The Marionettes but properly produced. Can imagine this one becoming a pre-midnight Slimes classic.

The End Is the Beginning
by Mirror Of HazePerfectly gloomy Norwegian goth/post-punk, anchored by a punchy rhythm section and driven by chiming guitar lines and morose vocals.

Prints Of Darkness (2018 Deluxe Remaster)
by Dead Artist SyndromeA ’90s goth cult classic gets a vinyl reissue, its lush synths and melancholy melodies still rapturous and bewitching. A triumph.
go to album -
“Strangers” is packed with wonderfully menacing electro-goth—late-night horror movie music for vampire dance parties.
