Rachel Bloom & Adam Schlesinger - I'm the Villain in My Own Story lyrics

[Rebecca] I try to be good to others Treat my fellow men like brothers and sisters That's the story I'm the hero in So how come I can't zero in On why this song sounds so sinister? Oh my God… I'm the villain in my own story I'm the witch in my own tale Though I insist I'm the protagonist It's clear that my soul is up for sale I'm the villain in my own story The bad guy in my TV show I'm the “who” in the “whodunit,” When I go to hell I'll run it As Satan's CFO! [Rebecca, spoken] He needs someone to do the books Actually, I shouldn't do that—I'm terrible with money [Rebecca] But wait, how am I a villain? I give annually to UNICEF And just last week I helped a lady cross the street Who was super old and deaf [Rebecca, spoken] Wait, where am I? Ah, a bird! [Rebecca] I'm the villain in my own story I'm the b**h in the corner of the poster I'm the figure in the doorway or the Kraken up in Norway God, who is this song's composer? [Rebecca, spoken] It's, like, ridiculously sinister—like redunkulously sinister [Dialogue break] [Rebecca] I'm the villain in my own story My actions have gone way too far I told myself that I was Jasmine But I realize now I'm Jafar We're told love conquers all But that only applies to the hero Is the enemy what I'm meant to be? Is being the villain my destiny?
