Snuff Out the Light (Yzma's Song)

When a woman acquires a certain age

And the men who adored you no longer swoon

It pays to avoid the sunlit days

And live by the light of the kindly moonBut the moon grows old just like us all

And her beautiful years are done

So now she prays through endless days

To take her revenge on the sunWhen I was a girl at my daddy's side

Papa, the royal mortician

Revealed to me in secret signs

The mark of the magicianAnd daddy was no dummy

Did outrageous things with a mummy

And often the stiffs that he would drive

Would look better dead than they did aliveI studied well I learnt the trade

I thought my looks would never fade

If I could find that recipe

To give eternal youth to meIt was always my ambition

To use papa's tuition

And gain some small remission

From the vagaries of timeEvery little ray of sunshine robs me of my youth

Who to blame? Who the one? Who to curse?

You know the only on to blame

Would be my enemy the sunSnuff out the light, claim your right

To a world of darkness

Snuff out the light, neophytes

Of a world of darknessSupai baby, turn me on

Every wrinkle soon be gone

I could squeeze myself with glee

The promises you made to meI've really stopped at nothing

Murder, treachery and lying

Whatever it takes to keep my looks

You really can't blame a girl for tryingSnuff out the light, claim your right

To a world of darkness

Snuff out the light, neophytes

Of a world of darknessSnuff out the light, claim your right

To a world of darkness

Snuff out the light here tonightApparitions of eternal darkness

Spiraling in circles through the night

Creatures of beguiling blackness

No more squinting in the lightBats and owls and coiled sea dragons

Crocodile and carrion beasts

Swirling in the growing darkness

Join us in the coming feastSpectre wraith and apparition

Spirit demon phantom shade

Salamander serpents, dog-faced devils

Dance and watch the dying sunlight fade
