Lyrics
There's an evil man, who'll stop at nothing at all
He has a devious plan, that causes empires to fallHe can get ya when he wants ya, he can do what he likes
Cause he's armed to the teeth, with electrical spikes
He's possessed of a first-class criminal brain
And an unlimited supply of novocaineCause he's the
Death dentist
Death dentist
He's going to get you now
He's a
Death dentist
Death dentistHe evades detection with incredible skill
Interfering cops perish on the end of his drill
And thought the rumours are rife, nobody knows his name
So the CIA and the KGB and MI5 and Interpol all call him the same
That's
Death dentist
Death dentist
He's going to get you now
He's a
Death dentist
Death dentistNow some people say he is out of his mind
Oh they don't appreciate the extent of his crimes
But when he gets in at you, you won't have no choice
You know you're a goner when you hear his voice
He leans right up close; you think "this is it"
He looks you in the mouth and says "this won't hurt a bit"
Cause he's a
Death dentist
Death dentist
He's going to get you now
Death dentist
Death dentist
He's going to get you now
Death dentist
Death dentist
He's going to get you now
Death dentist
Death dentist
He's going to get you now

7May2002 4:28 PM (21 years 37 days ago)I was listening to Big Questions on the way home from work today, and realized I didn't know all the lyrics. When I looked at the lyrics here,I realized I knew even less than I thought. I always thought the chorus included "He's going to get you NUMB" Oh well, this is one of the JBC songs that didn't do much for me at first, but for some strange reason just keeps growing on me, even after all these years. -jm
