I woke up in a world that's twisted and forlorn
Where shadows dance and nightmares are reborn
The Mushroom Kingdom's beauty's now a curse
In this dark domain, it's only getting worse
I was once a hero, had a power and a fame
But now my name's a whisper, wrapped in fear and shame
The red hat's now tainted, my overalls are stained
With the darkness I've embraced
My soul is now enslaved!
Evil Mario, I'm the shadow in your dreams
A nightmare's king, or so it seems
I'll haunt your sleep, I'll steal your peace
Evil Mario, I'll never cease
In the depths of Bowser's castle, I've made my lair
Where the screams of the damned fill the poisoned air
The star that once guided us is now a broken light
Leading lost souls deeper into endless night
The power-ups are cursed, the coins are all for naught
I've turned the game around, now everything is fraught
The pipes that once led to worlds of fun and cheer
Now twist and turn to face your darkest fear!
Evil Mario, I'm the shadow in your dreams
A nightmare's king, or so it seems
I'll haunt your sleep, I'll steal your peace
Evil Mario, I'll never cease
Run, if you can, through this labyrinth of dread
The fire flowers burn with a vengeful red
The warp zones are traps, and the ghosts are real
In this cursed game, there's no chance to heal!
Evil Mario, I'm the shadow in your dreams
A nightmare's king, or so it seems
I'll haunt your sleep, I'll steal your peace
Evil Mario, I'll never cease
So when you hear a laugh that chills you to the bone
Know it's my spirit that has claimed this throne
In the darkened corners where the shadows grow
You'll find me lurking
Evil Mario
