Take a peak behind the curtain at my grand design Any less than picture-perfect, and it'll be cast aside I'm so impatient for inspiration when my pen becomes the sword Because I'll scrap ya if I have to go back to the drawing board Some dreams are simply meant to die What happens if they get revived? You thought you could toss me out? The ink ain't even dry! I'm no good, so cross me out And then we'll dot some I's That's a price all artists pay! A sacrifice! "That's so cliché" Lightning struck, and I was born The final cut just cut the cord Your dark imagination may be where demons hide So why'd you ever blame them When your pen brought them to life? (No!) You can't choose your family At least, not genetically But, I feel like we'll be real quick friends You brought me back So don't that make sense? (Oh, that makes sense!) Oh, don't you color me surprised! (I only see in black and white) 'Cause you can't kill the show He'll always get revived You made it happen! You made it real! When you imagined you gave us life and made us feel! Your thunder clappin', it's gettin' real! So if you haven't checked the forecast The weather's lookin' wet, I'll take the wheel So what if I'm a little rough around the edges? I'm an unmade masterpiece, I keep artists on their ledges This reboot might get messy, that's why I'm sorta sketchy I don't dance obediently, the demon's knees are far from bendy You made me in your image, so I lack a soul Tryin' to wipe me from existence And you're playin' Whack-A-Mole (oh!) Too bad you can not erase me! That, in fact, is why you hate me I'm your vision, bastardized "Like Frankenstein!" Then actualized! No, I won't color you surprised (You pull the plug, I'm still alive!) True artists never thrive At best, they'll survive! You made it happen! You made it real! Nobody's actin', but it's a show I'm gonna steal! Go call the cast in! I'll play the heel And if you haven't read the details The devil's due his debt, so take the deal I've been abominated, hollow eyes a-glow Re-animated, yet unrecognizable No better way to paint it This frame can not contain it To think of talent wasted Out of ink, but now I taste it (la, la, la, la) Even angels need to let the steam off (la, la, la, la) And no one's here to shut the damn machine off This work of art, once pure of heart May still become corrupted (all the stains are my scars!) I've come to find, it wasn't lightning That I've been struck with You made it happen! You made it real! Lights, camera, action! You put me right back on the reel! Now look who's laughin', your fate is sealed! Don't bother askin' for the details The devil's due his debt, and that's the deal (You made it happen!) (You made it happen!) (You made it happen!) (You made it happen!) (You made it happen!) (You made it happen!) (You made it happen!)

I wove a web out of light where no shadow shall be found But from the fabric of night one thread has come unwound And now I'm no longer tied to my Destiny, I'm unbound 'Cause I got a darkness inside, and I think you just brought it out When you're entering the twilight zone Then you'd better get your nightlight on Take a dive right into the hivemind Gotta fight dirty, shed your inner white knight 'Cause I might've lost mine, but I'll win this It'll be a battle that you'll wanna witness Oh, traveler, back so soon? What's the matter, didn't mesh with Savathun? My heart is hardened by the darkness into which I've wondered It all started back in the black garden nobody wanted to water My strings are more than theory, striking a chord, you'll hear me My light has fallen, yet I am finally seeing clearly This fight ain't for the faint of heart, I'm on it Some light ain't made to face the dark, I want it You're tappin' out or tappin' in to the shadow that you have within? 'Cause when you're blinded in the night, your light will fall, without a Guardian Striding atop of the clouds Thought I could walk in the light Just because the sun was out (doesn't mean that somewhere else) It isn't run by the night (now I'm on the other side) I've already broken my stasis, set me in motion This synth wave won't ever be frozen Never been prone to float on the ocean Even Zavala's showin' emotion I've interwoven every strand of antimatter, I feel it This isn't tech, it's genetic, and yes, I've added a Helix I feel like flyin', Peter Pan First time that I've been to Neverland Tell Captain Hook to come catch a hand Because I don't plan to collapse again Just like Rasputin Rebooted, no shame in shakin' my kinks out Attention, checkmate all queens I've already taken your kings out This fight ain't for the faint of heart, I'm on it Some light ain't made to face the dark, I want it You're tappin' out or tappin' into the shadow that you have within? 'Cause when you're blinded in the night, your light will fall I have watched all the dominoes tumble Everyone, like a grunt among mumbles If you were runnin' your mouth, now you can run for survival I found a power so biblical, go dispatch your disciples See, now we're tied, galvanized, the hourglass out of time Grit your teeth, cross some lines but of light, dark will find To suspend you forever within the shadows of nether When Destiny comes unraveled from certain fate are we severed? I'll weave a web out of dark I have forsaken the light Who said the void has no heart? I feel its hold over mine This fight ain't for the faint of heart, I'm on it Some light ain't made to face the dark, I want it You're tappin' out or tappin' in to the shadow that you have within? 'Cause when you're blinded in the night, your light will fall, without a Guardian

Failure is foreign to me I've never been felled in battle No one has shown me defeat So I'll slaughter 'em all like cattle My sword will siphon your life force And now it's your soul that you'll fight for I'm the severed, I'm the blade I'm the rotten and depraved And the digger of your grave I got a cloth on my loins, and a pot on my head Nothin' but a couple of katanas in hand The song of my sword is an art of my dance So pick up your weapon if I'm dropping my pants I don't plan to get hit, so why wear armor? I'm no white knight, but I'm quite the charmer This rotten rapunzel requires a barber But an arm an a leg is what I'm gonna charge her Malenia's runnin' a slaughterhouse So taking her down ain't an option now I've studied her form so if anyone finds A bloodstain on the floor for sure, it isn't mine Now let me solo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo her Pretty please summon me Let me solo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo her Don't arrest me for indecent Expo-po-po-po-po-po-po posure No menage a trois sorry brah lemme Solo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo her Solo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo her I was carved from marble, keep my body cut Gotta stay rock hard 'cause I'm hard to touch I don't need protection from your scarlet rot You got a lot of moves, none of which are hard to dodge Look, I took an L from her plenty of times So whenever I fight you know I'm ready to die I got nothing to lose or anything on the line Except my reputation I'll bring my legend to life when I Solo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo her Pretty please summon me Let me solo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo her Don't arrest me for indecent Expo-po-po-po-po-po-po posure No menage a trois sorry brah lemme Solo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo her Solo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo her I'm flawless like the jawline of chad Reincarnate of giantdad Sculpted buttocks with the thightest abs So you see why I am never iron clad When the night is dark, you know I'll light the path But you don't need to know who am I behind the mask I ain't looking for fame, nor the applause of the crowd I speak with a blade and I leave with a bow Long have I walked on the path of the jar And I'll never stop I'll ascend to the stars Long live my legacy, I'm far from done But my song will have not gone unsung Who is this man bringing the world together? Turning the lands between against me now Heavy his hand yet treading light as a feather Can nothing take him down? Let me solo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo her Pretty please summon me Let me solo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo her Don't arrest me for indecent Expo-po-po-po-po-po-po posure No menage a trois sorry brah lemme Solo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo her Solo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo her

If you rely on the pot of the luck No wonder why your dinner party will suck You need a genie, give this bottle a rub 'Cause what good is spirit if it's stuck in a jug? Take a sip of this, I'll give you somethin' to chug As if one too many wasn't enough Another round, on the house for the cup and the mug Still runnin' and gunnin' like a couple of thugs Owed a debt to the devil but we settled it You know that I love to gamble but I had to quit 'Cause I'm an addict, never know when I'm gonna stop If I see a glass half full, then I'll fill it up And you can bet I will never spill a drop If you wanna put a lid on me then I'm gonna pop I'm not a tall drink but I'm leveled to the top You can talk to my bosses, I kill it at my job But now that Satan's reign is over I won't wager my soul, I'm sober Nonetheless, Cuphead's back for an encore! Two heads are better than one but we want more! 'Cause something's missing and you need a new fix Perhaps, a feminine ingredient to the mix? And that's just what you want the mostest Promise, you won't get ghosted! Bottles up, let's raise a toast! (Give 'em all a taste of our brand new roast!) Mouths to feed but we got 'em all fed Don't leave any appetite unread! Trust me, if you wanna bake some bread (Do not double-cross Cuphead, 'nough said!) Hell has frozen over, now that I got sober I doubt I'm outta dice to be rolled Listen death, I'm gonna cheat you Since I've got a sweet tooth This is a dish I've been told is best served cold This little dish sure can take a lickin' If you don't want heat then evacuate the kitchen Keep your feet movin', don't stop kickin' The oven is hot and the clock is tickin' Pickin' up steam, gotta work fast! I've earned my treat but I'm gonna burn that! 'Cause I'm chuggin' all day and I can't turn back Careful not to get caught in my thirst trap Ready for the check? 'Cause you've been served That is unless you have room for dessert! Doesn't matter if you've already swallowed your pride It don't mean you won't succumb to your vice Your ravenous appetite might leave you wantin' more I've got a recipe for disaster and that means back to the cutting board! Sorry Chef, checkmate, you're done! I'm stickin' you up with a finger gun! I could duel the sheriff, I could move a mountain If you wanna dogfight me, you'll be howlin'! I'll halt this bootleg operation! If they get salty, then I'll bake 'em! Might get dicey, but I'll shake 'em! Like a bad habit, had to break 'em! I don't just got drip, I run like a faucet My nickname is "Hothead" 'cause no one can touch this I'm non-alcoholic but I'm hella toxic Come on, I know you want it You'd better swallow all of it! Hell has frozen over, now that I got sober I doubt I'm outta dice to be rolled Listen death, I'm gonna cheat you Since I've got a sweet tooth This is a dish I've been told is best served cold Three heads are better than two! If you bit off more than you can chew But ain't just anyone we let in our crew You gotta skippity-bop-bop-bowop-bop-bop-bop-biddly-diddly-doo (Beep-bop-beep-bop-beepity-bow-beep-bop-bippity-boo) (Skippity-pap, pippity-pow, chickity-lickity-doo( (Wamalama-dam-bam-bamala-dam-badam-bip-bip-bippity-bee) (Deet-dot-deet-dot-deedly-deet-dedee-dee-dee-deedly-dee) (Not mess with a Cuphead, 'nough said) (Do not mess with a Cuphead, 'nough said) (Do not mess with a Cuphead, 'nough said) Do not mess with a Cuphead, 'nough said! Hell has frozen over, now that I got sober I doubt I'm outta dice to be rolled Listen death, I'm gonna cheat you Since I've got a sweet tooth This is a dish I've been told is best served cold

This is a song for the sheep Who's afraid of the big bad wolf? Well you shouldn't be 'Cause evil's something I couldn't be My head's full of teeth, but they're made for smiling Despite the bodies pilin' up, ignore 'em And look for a door Only an exit, open nothing more I'd rather not get ripped apart Can I trust you with my heart? Go on and draw your boundaries But I'm bound to cross some lines In a world devoid of color There is one I call divine Black is the color of laughter Black is the color of joy Black is the blood on my casket It's the palette of the void Black is happy-ever-after As tragedy is to befall I blacken my soul with disaster Leave it plastered on the walls Where would a wolf wander without his pack? As sanity sinks and then slips through the cracks? Any lingering light will leak into the black So welcome aboard the train without track Lay back on the surgery table, my hands are unsteady But surely I'm able of cracking your cage And setting your rage free I'll replace you if you betray me! Ink hath runneth over And the tide will only rise But beware the undertow Your final throes are growing nigh! Want a bone? Here's one, I'll throw ya You woke up in someone's mind Just like I did, so don't fight it There is nowhere left to hide Death is no such dreadful thing When you can rest in ink This is your lullaby He'll set you down to lie Then hang you out to dry And make you proud to die Black is the color of laughter Black is the color of joy Black is the blood on my casket It's the palette of the void Black is happy-ever-after As tragedy is to befall I blacken my soul with disaster Leave it plastered on the walls What's an identity but a lie? 'Cause the man that I once was, wasn't I See a monster is all in perspective Pretend that this song is your posthumous lullaby Now your pain is in paint, and I'll watch it dry Then a permanent stain, you'll become with time You're the sideshow, don't be mistaken 'Cause I'm the one takin' home all of the bacon He's always closin' in The halls are growing dim The walls are closin' in And nothing else is holding him Play your favorite tune aloud To make you braver through your doubt You've made your way to proving grounds Stay and face the music now Death is no such dreadful thing When you can rest in ink This is your lullaby He'll set you down to lie Then hang you out to dry And make you proud to die Black is the color of laughter Black is the color of joy Black is the blood on my casket It's the palette of the void Black is happy-ever-after As tragedy is to befall I blacken my soul with disaster And leave it plastered on the walls Death is no such dreadful thing When you can rest in ink This is your lullaby He'll set you down to lie Then hang you out to dry And make you proud to die Black is the color of laughter
