Why Me? (Outtake)

In my formative and hungry years

I was unappreciated by my peers

As their slings and arrows flew

I would ponder - wouldn't you?

"Why me? Why me?!"

For a man of my charisma and mystique

I have taken far too long to reach my peak

Why was my status never quo?

Why did no one want to know?

Poor me! Why me?!

Why was I so unable to fulfill my true potential?

Kept down by those I knew were smaller fry

Inconsequential!

But here's the rub!

Rub-a-dub-dub!

I am power, I am clout personified!

I've a genie and sheer malice on my side!

It's a combination which works me up to a favor pitch

"Big G"… and ME!

When the master of the lamp says "Bow"… you bow!

You forget who wears the pants around here now?

A man who knows just what to do, and who to do it to!

Who's he? M-E!

And as for you, you little twerp, from now on, it's "as you were" time!

Let's have your pretty princess see how she's been wasting her time!

Let's strip him bare

There's nothing there!

Though I hate to break a partnership

You're going on a one-way trip

To a corner of the sphere

Not a million miles from here, but two

Toodle-loo

Who's the titan? Who's the champ?

Who's the master of the lamp?

Who's the one who'll take up pages in who's who?

Who?

Why, me!

Evil laughter
