A human statue made of living stone
A paradox etched in human bone
If you could look behind his thin disguise
There`s a hidden glint of madness in his eyes.

Many men are fooled by his smile
His superficial grace his charm his style
Sardonicus is everybody`s friend
Sardonicus keeps smiling to the end.
