Lyrics
I'm The Villain In My Own Story
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I try to be good to others
Treat my fellow men like brothers and sisters
That's the story I'm the hero in
So how come I can't zero in
On why this song sounds so sinister?
(Oh, my God)
I'm the villain in my own story
I'm the witch in my own tale
Though I insist I'm the protagonist
It's clear that my soul is up for sale
I'm the villain in my own story
The bad guy in my TV show
I'm the who in the whodunit
When I go to hell I'll run it
As Satan's CFO!
(He needs someone to do the books)
(Actually, I shouldn't do that)
(I'm terrible with money)
But wait, how am I a villain?
I give annually to UNICEF
And just last week I helped a lady cross the street
Who was super old and deaf
(Wait, where am I? Aah, a bird!)
I'm the villain in my own story
I'm the bitch in the corner of the poster
I'm the figure in the doorway
Or the Kraken up in Norway
God, who is this song's composer?
(It's, like, ridiculously sinister)
(Like re-dunk-ulously sinister)
Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
Well, well, well!
Looks like I got you now, Valencia!
What do you want to do with me
You evil witch queen?
I am but a humble yoga instructor!
Oh, what I want is
Your boyfriend!
Not Prince Josh!
Anything, but Prince Josh!
Why are you doing this?
I'm Kate Hudson!
We're doing the Witch and the Princes theme
Just go with it!
Okay, so fine
I'm the princess!
Why? Why are you doing this to me?
Because I'm jealous of you and your life!
You're so skinny and Josh is so perfect
That I want to take it all for myself!
And now, I'll cook you into
The traditional dish of Dinaguan
And serve it to Josh's family!
No! No!
Shut up!
I'm the villain in my own story
My actions have gone way too far
I told myself that I was Jasmine
But I realize now I'm Jafar
We're told love conquers all
But that only applies to the hero
Is the enemy what I'm meant to be?
Is being the villain my destiny?
