[REBECCA (DANCERS)]

My whole life

I've wanted to be bad

(To be bad, to be bad, to be bad)

But whenever I tried

The result was always sad

(So sad, so pathetic, weak and sad)

However, now I know

A certain beau

Who doesn't worry 'bout what'd decent or right

(That's you!)

[NATHANIEL, spoken]

Yeah, I got that

[REBECCA]

So how 'bout now

You teach me how

To be ruthless and cruel

Yeah! I'm ready tonight!

[REBECCA]

So strip away my conscience

Peel away my values

Rip off my compassion with your teeth

Pound away my morals

Spank off all my kindness, ooh!

Expose the dormant bitch that lies beneath

[REBECCA]

You devil

Lead me to the dark side

Like a lamb to the slaughter

Then do me in a hot tub filled with evil 'stead of water

Let's make war not love all night and day

It's hot here in hell so...

Strip it all away

(Spoken)

Stop hitting yourself!

[REBECCA (DANCERS), sung]

Yeah baby

You're a soul-sucking, corporate piece of trash

Who only cares about sex, lies and cash

So tell me 'bout your sins

And shock me with their luridness

Let me be your pupil

Let me choke on your cocksuredness

(Innuendo!)

[REBECCA (DANCERS)]

Strip away my conscience

Tear away my jew guilt

Kiss around my sense of right and wrong

(Spoken)

But not on it, it's sensitive

(Sung)

Baby, it's such foreplay

When you slither like a moray (Eel!)

It's worth the discomfort of my thong

You're like Professor Snape in his sad dungeon with his potions

'Cause somehow you don't have that sucky thing called emotions

Fifty shades of morally grey

And thongs are so uncomfortable so...

[REBECCA]

Strip it all away

Strip it all away

Strip it all away

(Spoken)

That was just up my butt
