The Villain's Joke

They say I play the villain’s part, but I wear it like a crown

Got a crooked smile, a wicked grin, I’m just holding the throne down

Everyone loves a hero, but I prefer the shade

Laughing in the echoes, 'cause I know what’s been played

My story’s the twist nobody tells, I’m the punchline in disguise

Flip the script, I’m the joke, the laughter behind your eyes

Oh, I’m the bad guy, just so you know,

But I’ve got charm, and I steal the show

Make it fun, turn it around, just a wicked joke

In this villain’s world, I’ll never choke

I’m the villain, the dark in your song

Laughing loud as I sing along

Playing the role with a grin so sly

It’s all a joke, no need to deny

They point the finger, but I just wink,

Poke fun at the tale you think I’d shrink

This villain’s smile is my favorite part,

Laughing through shadows, a work of art

So raise your glass to the rogue you see,

I’m the villain, and that’s just me

A joke, a play, a wicked jest,

In this story, I feel blessed
