Here are my revised lyrics for “Different” from AVPM. I changed some to fit today’s humor, and to make it utilzable for karaoke tracks without being drawn to Harry Potter. Use it for talent shows, whatever. Most of it is unchanged, but eh. Here it is.
You won’t sleep on your tummy.
You won’t sleep on your back!
We’re quite a kooky couple, you’ll agree.
*Interlacing fingers, like gay lovers*
We share some hands and fingers
And yet the feeling lingers~
We’re just about as different as anyone can be!
You like planting a garden, and I like plotting to kill!
You think that you should “rule the world”. I think books are a thrill! Sipping tea by the fire is swell-
Pushing people in is fun as well! I like folding all my ties-
And you have no friends, Hey! That’s a surprise.
It’s plain to see, when you look at you and me! We’re different, different as can be.
You’re a loser. Not gloom, a nerd! I’m the darkest of lords!
I’m the brightest man in the room: I’ve won several awards!
My new world will soon unfold!
You almost got killed by a two year old.
H-hey that’s fake! Very untrue!
Or you might just cry right out of the blue!
I guess it’s plain to see, when you look at you and me! We’re different, different as can-
I’ll rise again! And I’ll rule the world! But you must help me renew… for when our plan succeeds-
Prevails!
Part of that world… goes to you.
When I rule the world, I’ll plant flowers!
When I rule the world, I’ll have… SNAKES!
And Jane Austin novels!
Werewolves and goblins, dragons and monsters! Giants and spiders and a fleet of tormentors!
When I rule the world!
I guess it’s plain to see… when you look at you and me… we’re… different. Different. As can be.
We simply guarantee, when you look at you and me! We’re different, different as can be!
It’s a comedy of sorts; when you’re roommates with a dark lord!
And I’ll be as annoying as a fly… as long as I’m with this guy!
Our evils plans will soon unfurl and we’ll take over the world! We’re different! Different! As can be!
