“Death By Glamour” Lyrics

Made this in high school too, and I still think the wordplay is weirdly incredible. Main weakness is that it’s too consonant-stuffed to be performed at full speed by human lips. You’d need like a speedrunner TAS.

Btw, there’s an early section where I don’t actually follow the melody and it’s more of a rap breakdown. You’ll figure it out.

To the tune of “Death By Glamour” from Undertale

Kick, pose, action!

Human head smashed in!

Songs, lights, bloodshed!

Dance until you’re dead!


Real stage magic!

Ending so tragic!

Got legs for days!

Idol everyone craves!


Monster messiah

I ain’t no lia’

Dear, don’t test me

This could get messy!


Wanna make some batter, break an egg into a cup

Wanna break the barrier, you gotta put ‘em up

Try’na be the winner of the fight despite your age?

Dearest child, I run this stage!


Write us all an essay where you open up your heart

Show us you’re the beauty who is perfect for the part

Minus all the hype, you’re the type to disappoint,

So hit the road, sly one, I run this joint!


Tell me how you’re gonna bring us thunderous applause!

Sell me on the drama and the wonder and the awe!

Hell if I am gonna die without a cheering crowd!

Sorry dear, is this too loud?


I won’t stop, so show me you can take it

Show me you deserve to get past

So dodge around my feet!

Show me, dear, that you can last~


I won’t stop, so show me you can take it

Be the penguin, step into the scene

Now, always say yes-and!

Now you are the dancing queen~


I won’t stop unless you wanna forfeit

Come on, darling, I’ve already won

Oh, do give up the ghost!

Pretty sure your time has come~


All performers bluff until we make it

Show me you deserve my big chance

So show me you can ACT, show me you can FIGHT,

Show me that humanity can dance!


Try to parry high and low – No, I’m behind you!

Weak and slow – Now catch a bomb – You’re a flambé!


Anywhere you try to go, you know I’ll find you

Help the show? I’ll murder you either way!


Everybody thinks they know behind the curtain,

Even though they’ve never endeavored to see


Every human fights their foes to reach the surface

Forget you – It has to be me!


Then I’ll be the star everyone human wants to know

They’ll line up to get in, I’ll sell out every show!


(And then) I’ll be performing to stadiums of fans

I’ll make everyone swoon with a wave of my hand!


(And then) I’ll be the star every human wants to be

They’ll be glued to their screens in their worship of me


(So if) I get to give these dark caverns my goodbye,

Then I’m sure I don’t care if someone has to die, darling!


Wound, maim, murder

You’ll get no further

Stab, slice, sauté

Kid for lunch today


Let’s go faster

Bow to your master

One more time through

Darling, I’ll kill you!
