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 Moon

But 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 Sun

When I was a girl at my daddy's side

Papa, the royal mortician

Revealed to me in secret signs

The mark of the magician

And 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 alive

I studied well, I learnt the trade

I thought my looks would never fade

If I could find that recipe

To give eternal youth to me

It was always my ambition

To use papa's tuition

And gain some small remission

From the vagaries of time

Every little ray of sunshine robs me of my youth

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

You know the only one to blame would be my enemy, the Sun

Snuff out the light

Claim your right

To a world of darkness

Snuff out the light

Neophytes

Of a world of darkness

Supai baby, turn me on

Every wrinkle soon be gone

I could squeeze myself with glee

The promises you made to me

I've really stopped at nothing

Murder, treachery, and lying

Whatever it takes to keep my looks

You really can't blame a girl for trying

Snuff out the light

Claim your right

To a world of darkness

Snuff out the light

Neophytes

Of a world of darkness

Snuff out the light

Claim your right

To a world of darkness

Snuff out the light

Here tonight

Apparitions of eternal darkness

Spiraling in circles through the night

Creatures of beguiling blackness

No more squinting in the light

Bats and owls, and coiled sea dragons

Crocodile and carrion beasts

Swirling in the growing darkness

Join us in the coming feast

Specter wraiths and apparitions

Spirit demon, phantom shade

Salamander serpents, dog-faced devils

Dance and watch the dying sunlight fade
