Secretly Cruel

Gene Simmons

According to Gene this song was inspired by a "Girl who used to write in and describe all the great things she would do with my pictures. She had this giant poster of me standing sideways then she would position herself in a certain way and that was her thrill" (Kerrang #155). Gene has also expanded that during a particular liaison on tour with a groupie they went back to her house where he saw all of the pictures of himself covering the walls of her room. He continues, "This girl, after our, uh, liaison, she wanted more. And it was obvious if she couldn't - you know, Hell hath no fury like a groupie... scorned" (Creem Collector Series 2, 1).
