MALEFICENT I was once like you, my child Slightly insecure Argued with my mother, too Thought I was mature But I put my heart aside And I used my head Now I think it’s time you learned What dear old mama said?:
Don’t you wanna be evil like me? Don’t you wanna be mean Don’t you wanna make mischief your daily routine? Well, you can spend your life Attending to the poor But when you’re evil doing less is doing more
Don’t you wanna be ruthless and rotten and mad Don’t you wanna be very, very good at being bad? I have tried my whole life long To do the worst I can Clawed my way to victory Built my master plan Now the time has come, my dear For you to take your place Promise me you’ll try to be An absolute disgrace
Don’t you wanna be evil like me? Don’t you wanna be cruel? Don’t you wanna be nasty and brutal and cool? And when you grab that wand That’s when your reign begins Who wants an evil queen without a sack of sins? Don’t you wanna be heartless and hardened as stone? Don’t you wanna be finger-lickin’ evil to the bone? This is not for us to ponder This was pre-ordained You and I shall rule together Freedom soon regained Mistress of the universe Powerful and strong Daughter, hear me, help me, join me Won’t you sing along?!
