First you gotta hurt
someone who loved you
and who you trusted above you
bent over backwards for and rushed to
“be around” like The Spinners sung you
just to have her crush you

now you feelin mean
cuz you understand
but inside you bleed
you were flying high
now paralyzed by pain
like Christopher Reeve

you were Richer Pryor
I don't mean Gus Gorman
but that pain is fire
just for your performance
let it take you higher
you will get to gore them
to that you aspire
you will make them bleed
better make investments, save up every penny
buy your super armor, so you need some greed
hire loyal people
you're just plantin seeds
for the cover ups you'll need

start crackin innocent heads like eggs, think Robotnik
now you take a couple people hostage
draw out every hero who is possibly
deemed as awesome
by the populace
then you use your genius to accost them
better have riches
to fund your inventions
or else you might end up getting tossed when
your city's hero comes and tries to boss you
just forget the soft path you used maybe
get a Sephiroth masamune
and stab it in the heart after you say
I'm taking over

you got the money and bringing the pain
now get to levels considered insane
people are saying that you be deranged?
yo, whatchu mean, no!
blow a kid's head off, Coyotito

they want pearls
they want gold and riches
show em that it's dangerous
like they're catching Snitches
knock em out the air
slit a hostage wee throat
let the blood leak, like Carter III tho

say "I'm me!" like that pre-release tho
then you'll never be doubted by police, bro!
make the head dangle and hang
like it's on a chain/ or string of Wii remote
now they know your crazy, now they know your crazy
let the heroes come in with their super powers
but you're smarter with devices you devour
all of their attacks, quench em by the hour
Batman turned evil
you believe, tho?
these heroes stay shook
and you could do it spending half the time hustling as you spent putting salty comments on Facebook
stop it, you're a


Supervillain!
and you laugh like ha ha ha ha
you're so maniacal!
own everybody, ya ya
own everybody, ya ya
own everybody, ya ya ya
this is how you supervillain
and you laugh like ha ha ha aha
you're so diabolical
own everybody, ya ya
own everybody, ya ya
own everybody, ya ya
this is how you
Supervillain!

Now you've arrived, but you gotta stay
this is how you do it, return to the pain
then go deeper find the derivative
no I'm not talkin Calculus, but if
you were doing that you'd find derivatives by multiplying coefficient
by the x power then apply addition
but I'm talkin bout the roots of crime ambition

maybe as a child you were supplied derision
and all you've thought about your whole life is vengeance
seize that rejection you were feeling
make em pay for calling you a weakling
ook at Kefka, he was scheming
so scheme and you'll get it
your dream and your vision
will take you far until you're the king of the city
by now you shouldn't need to be thrifty
so hire more minions for petty crime

send em back into the city
they're killing for nickels and pennies
you don't want your hands to be gritty
but they do the work and they're bringing
it back so you stack up every dime

build an empire
and use your money to inspire
better work from all the people that you hire
you're manipulating every mind
now they view you as benevolent
taking city life and you're wrecking it
but they can't catch you though they have evidence
you're too dangerous for the police, so the hero has become your nemesis
and you might lose a few fights, but not the war
cuz he was justice but you're ending him

now you own the police
cuz you truly need
some insider deeds
you've got lies to feed
to the news media and every paper that citizens read
they're intimidated now! they ain't telling on ya
they din hear nothin
they din see nothin
they ain't saying much, Helen Keller on ya!

now the mayor's just
figurehead status, nothing's held beyond ya
people scared cuz
if they piss you off they know no help is coming

You own it, you own it
the people behold you
with fear and with loathing
but you've got money, reputation is growing
the entire city exists as your throne and
you know you've stepped into your zone and
you've become a


Supervillain!
and you laugh like ha ha ha ha
you're so maniacal!
own everybody, ya ya
own everybody, ya ya
own everybody, ya ya ya
this is how you supervillain
and you laugh like ha ha ha aha
you're so diabolical
own everybody, ya ya
own everybody, ya ya
own everybody, ya ya
this is how you
Supervillain!
