Midas Touch

See the man in the bookshop

See his withered hand

He walks very slowly never stands in crowds

Children stand and wonder as he turns and walks away

Closely guards the secret

Of the beauty in his eyes

He's the man with the Midas touch

He'll make you burn with just one look

He's the man with the Midas touch

He's got the beauty in his eyes

He looks so innocent

As he shuffles down the street

But he is the holy sentinel

That guards the gates of Hades

To stop the Lord Of Darkness

Coming straight from hell

The bringer of disaster

The one who tolls the bell

He's the man with the Midas touch

He'll make you burn with just one look

He's the man with the Midas touch

He's got the beauty in his eyes

Until the final conflict

He has to walk the earth

To do his master's bidding

And stop the evil force

He waits for Armageddon

The Nazarene will come

Rising from the ashes

Of the fallen world

He's the man with the Midas touch

He'll make you burn with just one look

He's the man with the Midas touch

He's got the beauty in his eyes
