You're lost, little girl
You shouldn't have come here
And I sure ain't in the mood to make new friends
Go home, little girl
The shadow's drawing near
And you all alone, we both know how this ends
Let's see how far she bends
We all know how this ends
ย
Hello?
Testing one, two, testing three
Is this thing on? Are you testing me?
With your coterie ogling expectantly
Heads up: wrecking me won't come for free
See, it won't be easy, Persephone
When I use the moves, I bring blessedly
Shadows don't scare me, see I'll survive it
Maybe you want to do this in private?
ย
You're lost, little girl
You're wasting our time, now
The gall of a squeaking mouse in a lion's den
Give up, little girl!
The bus home is leaving
Seen it so many times, we all know how this ends
We all know how it ends
ย
Oh wait, you're she? THE Persephone?
Oh boy? A celebrity, dissing me!
Now remind me, P - jog my memory
Sorry, not up on my ancient history
Underworld, now that rings a bell...
Was it you who was married to the king of hell?
It's hazy... Hades? So you're his lady?
Before my time, because i'm such a baby!
ย
Please, teach me my ABCs
Me, I never featured in Euripides
So "where are they now?"
Wow, look around
You're the big cheese of a hole in the ground
ย
Don't you have any idea what you dealing with, child?
Surprise, surprise! Coins on your eyes!
Give them to the ferryman
Get it in your little head
You're spitting at the Queen
Of the Dead
ย
You're not my queen, P, I'm alive
You got a real live Muse in this basement dive
You could use a boost, should I play a gig?
Hey, word of mouth works, P, it'll be big!
Get lost, little girl
I'd need a room and a rider and a cut of the bar
You're making me angry
I got needs, you see
Say please, I'll bring keys and a couple guitars
You don't want to know how far we could descend
We having fun yet?!
Yeah!
I'm sorry, what, Shep?
Let me guess: how it ends, yeah, you already said
Back off, little girl
We're young, you're old, we live, you die
You're asking for trouble
The end! See? That's how time works, Buh-bye!
You want to push me, so look and the see how this ends
How this always ends
ย
Don't you have any idea how you sound right now?
We hear it all the time
The world is full of ghosts and nothing's ever born
ย
You're choking on dust down here, now
Maybe that's your cue
Time's come to move on
Make space for someone new, someone not as bored as you
Maybe this new Muse will do!
ย
Don't use that word!
You have no right to use that word!
After what you did to her...
Why don't I just kill you and wipe the floor with you?
Don't use that word!
You have to fight to use that word!
You don't go in and take, that's your biggest mistake
For Calliope's sake...
ย
What, what word? Muse? Not use it at all?
Not cool, screw you, see, it's not your call
Not a kid, but I'm innocent and I can explain
See my sunshine coming at the end of your reign!
Say my name! (Grace!)
Say my name! (Grace!)
Say my name! (Grace!)
ย
Say, hey, you've lost, little girl
I'm stolen the show, now
A breath of some fresher air, that's enough for them
Hello, Underworld! I'm finding a flow, now
I'm not going to slow down, and here's why it's so loud:
Because none of us know, now
How it's gonna end!
How it's gonna end!
How it's gonna end!
