lyrics

He’s got a 14 foot scarf, Knows how to ride a giraffe, Hear his maniacal laughter
He knows the things, which are true, Adjusts your angle of view, Under judicial review

He’s looking above, he’s looking around.
My advice to you, keep your head down
And if you can, get deep underground

He’s the man with many faces, commander of disguise
He’ll set fire to the traces as he births a nest of lies

He’s not a man you can fool, He went to graduate school, Known as the prince of misrule
He knows no fear and no pain, Enormous knowledge domain, It takes too long to explain

If you strike him down with all your hate
He comes right back up still looking great
And if you can see him it’s already too late

He’s the man with many faces, the captain of disguise
He’ll hit the detonator as he looks into your eyes

He travels through space and time, Using the power of his mind, Defending all humankind
He travels through time and space, Frequently changing his face, Exterminating our race

He’s the man with many faces, each one has a different hat
He’ll put you in your place ‘cause only he knows where it’s at
The man with many faces, one of them's a girl
Stand back as he transitions whilst he saves another world

All we wanted was a place that we could call our own
But everywhere we go is infested with life
Tried to exterminate the vermin that was here before us
He tries to stop us, but he won’t take us alive

(keep your helmets on, children)
Keep your helmets on
(keep your helmets on, children)
Yes they’ll keep you safe from his eyes
(keep your helmets on, children)
No matter what he says don’t take them off
(keep your helmets on, children)
