The Emperor's New Groove movie - Snuff Out the Light (Yzma's Song) lyrics
rate meSong by David Hartley<br /><br>
When a woman acquires a certain age<br>
And the men who adored you no longer swoon<br>
It pays to avoid the sunlit days<br>
And live by the light of the kindly moon<br>
But the moon grows old<br>
Just like us all<br>
And her beautiful years are done<br>
So now she prays through endless days<br>
To take her revenge on the sun<br>
<br>
When I was a girl at my daddy's side<br>
Papa, the royal mortician<br>
Revealed to me in secret signs<br>
The mark of a magician<br>
<br>
And Daddy was no dummy<br>
Did outrageous things with a mummy<br>
And often the stiffs that he would shrive<br>
Would look better dead than they did alive<br>
<br>
I studied well I learnt the trade<br>
I thought my looks would never fade<br>
If I could find that recipe<br>
To give eternal youth to me<br>
<br>
It was always my ambition<br>
To use Papa's tuition<br>
And gain some small remission<br>
From the vagaries of time<br>
<br>
Every little ray of sunshine robs me of my youth<br>
Who to blame?<br>
Who the one?<br>
Who to curse?<br>
You know the only on to blame<br>
Would be my enemy the Sun<br>
<br>
Snuff out the light<br>
Claim your right<br>
To a world of darkness<br>
Snuff out the light<br>
Neophytes<br>
Of a world of darkness<br>
<br>
Supai baby turn me on<br>
Every wrinkle soon be gone<br>
I could squeeze myself with glee<br>
The promises you made to me<br>
<br>
I've really stopped at nothing<br>
Murder, treachery, and lying<br>
Whatever it takes to keep my looks<br>
You really can't blame a girl for trying<br>
<br>
Snuff out the light<br>
Claim your right<br>
To a world of darkness<br>
Snuff out the light<br>
Neophytes<br>
Of a world of darkness<br>
<br>
Snuff out the light<br>
Claim your right<br>
To a world of darkness<br>
<br>
Snuff out the light<br>
Here tonight<br>
<br>
Apparitions of eternal darkness<br>
Spiraling in circles through the night<br>
Creatures of beguiling blackness<br>
No more squinting in the light<br>
<br>
Bats and owls and coiled sea dragons<br>
Crocodile and carrion beasts<br>
Swirling in the growing darkness<br>
Join us in the coming feast<br>
<br>
Spectre wraith and apparition<br>
Spirit demon phantom shade<br>
Salamander serpents dog-faced devils<br>
Dance and watch the dying sunlight fade<br>
<br>
