The last I heard of you 
You were somewhere on a cruise in the Mediterranean 
So imagine my surprise to see you very much alive 
In the English rain again 
 
And I can still recall wet afternoons 
When we were small and simply childish 
But you've created your own ghost 
And the need you have is more than most to hide it 
 
Oh, Chameleon, you're stealing your way back into my eyes 
Beyond a shadow of a doubt 
You're a devil, you're a devil in disguise 
Do you really change me, or am I going crazy 
Chameleon, Chameleon, Chameleon, you're free again my child 
 
I remember still those lazy summer days 
We'd kill out hunting danger 
And we were alien to all outsiders 
We had no desire to talk to strangers
