<br>

[Ratigan:]<br>

My friends, we are about to embark on the most<br>

odious, the most evil, the most diabolical scheme<br>

of my illustrious career. A crime to top all <br>

crimes,<br>

a crime that will live in infamy!<br>

[Chorus:] <br>

[Ratigan:] Tomorrow evening, <br>

our beloved monarch celebrates <br>

her<br>

diamond jubilee. And, with the enthusiastic help <br>

of<br>

our good friend Mr Flaversham, it promises to be <br>

a<br>

night she will never forget. Her last night, and <br>

my<br>

first, as supreme ruler of all mousedom!<br>

<br>

From the brain that brought you the Big Ben Caper<br>

The head that made headlines in every newspaper<br>

And wondrous things like the Tower Bridge Job<br>

That cunning display that made London a sob<br>

<br>

Now comes the real tour de force<br>

Tricky and wicked, of course<br>

My earlier crimes were fine for their times<br>

But now that I'm at it again<br>

An even grimmer plot has been simmering<br>

In my great criminal brain<br>

<br>

[Chorus:] <br>

Even meaner? You mean it?<br>

Worse than the widows and orphans you drowned?<br>

You're the best of the worst around<br>

Oh, Ratigan<br>

Oh, Ratigan<br>

The rest fall behind<br>

To Ratigan<br>

To Ratigan<br>

The world's greatest criminal mind<br>

<br>

[Ratigan:] <br>

Thank you, Thank you. But it hasn't all been<br>

champagne and caviar. I've had my share of<br>

adversity, thanks to that miserable second-rate<br>

detective, Basil of Baker Street. For years, that<br>

insufferable pipsqueak has interfered with my <br>

plans.<br>

I haven't had a moment's peace of mind. But, all<br>

that's in the past! This time, nothing, not even<br>

Basil, can stand in my way! All will bow before<br>

me!<br>

[Chorus:] <br>

Oh, Ratigan<br>

Oh, Ratigan<br>

You're tops and that's that<br>

To Ratigan<br>

To Ratigan<br>

[Bartholomew:] <br>

To Ratigan, the world's greatest rat<br>

<br>

[Ratigan:] <br>

What was that? What did you call me?<br>

[Thug 1:] <br>

Oh, oh, he didn't mean it, Professor.<br>

[Thug 2:] <br>

I-it was just a slip of the tongue.<br>

[Ratigan:] <br>

I am NOT A RAT!<br>

[Thug 3:] <br>

'Course you're not. You're a mouse!<br>

[Thug 4:] <br>

Yeah, that's right. Right! A mouse.<br>

[Thug 5:] <br>

Yeah, a big mouse!<br>

[Ratigan:] <br>

SILENCE! Oh, my dear Bartholomew, I'm afraid that<br>

you've gone and upset me. You know what happens<br>

when someone upsets me.<br>

<br>

[Bartholomew:] <br>

Oh, Ratigan<br>

Oh, Ratigan<br>

You're the tops and that's that<br>

(Oh dear.)<br>

To Ratigan<br>

To Ratigan<br>

To Ratigan, the world's greatest -<br>

[Felicia:] <br>

Meow.<br>

[Ratigan:] Oh, Felicia, my precious, my baby. Did Daddy's<br>

little honey bun enjoy her tasty __?<br>

[Felicia:]<br>

Urp.<br>

[Ratigan:] <br>

I trust there will be no further interruptions? <br>

And now, as you were singing?<br>

<br>

[Chorus:] <br>

Even louder<br>

We'll shout it!<br>

No one can doubt what we know you can do<br>

You're more evil than even you<br>

Oh, Ratigan<br>

Oh, Ratigan<br>

You're one of a kind<br>

To Ratigan<br>

To Ratigan<br>

The world's greatest criminal mind<br>
