(Slow, ominous orchestra… low strings… a single piano note echoes)
Verse 1 (silky, controlled)
Welcome, dear citizens, gather quite near,
I speak with precision, with purpose… and cheer,
But behind every smile is a plan tightly wound,
And I do love the sound of authority’s sound.
Ink on the parchment, a flick of the wrist,
Power’s a game—and I rarely have missed,
You whisper “concern,” I declare it a threat…
Oh darling, we’re not to the good part just yet.
⸻
Pre-Chorus (build, quiet menace)
You thought you had choices… how quaint, how naïve…
But rules are elastic when I take the lead…
⸻
Chorus (full villain belt, thunder crash)
“We will NOT allow this!” I sing with delight,
Let the torches be lit, let them gasp at the sight!
“This is a disgrace!” oh, the drama, the flair—
When I enter a room, even shadows beware!
Yes, I draw the line, and I redraw it too,
If it suits my design… well, what else would I do?
⸻
Verse 2 (playful, sinister)
You brought me your facts—how adorably bold,
But narratives shimmer much brighter than gold,
A tilt of the head, a well-timed decree,
And suddenly truth looks exactly like me.
Oh, I’ll hold a conference, polished and grand,
With statements so firm they’ll feel carefully planned,
And while you debate what is wrong, what is right…
I’ve already framed how it looks by tonight.
⸻
Pre-Chorus (whisper to crescendo)
A whisper… a headline… a shift in the air…
By the time you object, I’m already there.
⸻
Chorus (bigger, choir joins)
“We will NOT allow this!” the anthem resounds,
Echoing sharply through marble-filled halls,
“This is a disgrace!” let the outrage take form—
I don’t chase the storm… I become the storm.
⸻
Bridge (slow, eerie, almost spoken)
Is it justice… or theater… or something between?
Does it matter at all if it plays to the scene?
With a glance and a gesture, a carefully spun line…
What’s yours… becomes mine.
(villain laugh softly rises under orchestra)
⸻
Final Chorus (explosive, full Disney climax)
“WE WILL NOT ALLOW THIS!” the heavens comply,
Even thunder applauds as I lift up my cry!
“THIS IS A DISGRACE!” let it ring, let it swell—
If this is the script, then I’ll play it too well!
