Phantom of the Bwahpera's song is a song with lyrics in Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle. It is sung by Phantom of the Bwahpera, and was used in the game's second trailer. He sings the first verse at the beginning of his boss battle and the second verse at the third phase.[1]
The song is sung opera style, and is most notable for its lyrics, something mainly absent from other Mario franchise games. In the song, Phantom tries to dissuade Mario and company from fighting him, and tells him that he is ready to "reign".[2][3]
Lyrics
Bwah... Hum...ah-ehm
Bwaaaah-Bwah-Bwah BwaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAH!
Bwah Ahem-har...
Humph!
You think yours is a real moustache?
Who's done me a thousand wrongs
Ever since Donkey Kong?
Slithering down every pipe
Despite his plumb-shaped body type!
Who's gonna run in fear
While screaming 'Mamma miaaaaaaaaaa'?
Who leaves me gray and grim?
Oh, what does Peach see in him?
MARIO!
With great joy in my heart
Each time I watch Mario Kart!
You're first and doing so well
But here comes the Spiny Shell! Ha ha ha!
And now you and your Rabbid friends
Have finally met your ends!
Just let me catch my breath
Then I'll 'high C' you to death!
Who do you think you are?
You should kneel, I’m the star!
You are nothing but a parody
I’ll find you a good role in TRAGEDY. (Hahahaha!)
“It’s-a me!” “Let’s-a go!”
The only words you know!
My art will touch your princess’s heart
And you will be pulled apart!
You think you’ll win this tournament?
I’ll send you to retirement!
You’re so not worth the hassle!
Your princess is in another castle!
Mushrooms won’t end the pain
Time for the Phantom to start his reign!
