"Depose me from my rightful throne, will he? Just because I mixed up a few little old spells? Who needs Atlantis anyway. I'd redecorate this ocean with a vengeance if I had my crown again!"

Back, when I was still in power
You can bet the tides were high
Life was positively vicious
Delicious
To die

Lounging in my beachside tower
Seaweed petals underfoot
I'd throw
Fantastic buffets
Swanky soirees
Where are those days?
KAPUT!

Now, here I rot
Skinny as a crayfish
Hideously underfed
And simply wasting, wasting away

Looks nearly shot
Positively waifish
Guess how many pounds I've shed
While simply wasting, wasting away

It's no mirage
My whole decolletage
Has shrunken, I know
Hard to deny
That it, as well as I
Have sunken so low

Healthy, I'm not
Also, I'm anemic
Also, prematurely grey
Wasting, wasting away!

(Fragile and frail!
Also, pretty feeble!
Drooping like a kelp bouquet!
Sighing, dying away!)

"Boys..."

Yes, I know it's all too tragic
As for being fair, well HA!
Power, pleasure, fun, all vanished
I'm banished
Yes, MOI!

All because I used black magic
Broke one tiny rule, so what?
But now my potions and spells
Ointments and gels
Baubles and shells
Mean
SQUAT!

Now, here I am
RAVENOUS with hunger
Miserable beyond belief
And meanwhile wasting, wasting away!

Limp as a clam
Hardly getting younger
Stranded on a dead-end reef
Completely wasting, wasting away!

Look, I'm so lean
Why, no one's ever seen
A flatfish this thin!
I look, at best
Like something you'd have guessed
The CATFISH dragged in!

Once, I was glam
Once, I had a figure
Now I'm like a failed souffle
Wasting, wasting away!

Out of the loop
Swimming NOWHERE FAST
Exhausted, obsolete, PASSE
Wasting, wasting away!

(Gaunt and grotesque!
Haggard and decrepit!
Doddering in deep decay!
Snivelling, shrivelling...)

"ENOUGH!!!!! It's too much for my fragile body to take! Boys, gimme some support while I think wicked."

(Wasting...! Wasting...!)

"WAIT! I have an idea! The princess likes human things, eh? Then the little tart is ready for basting!"

(Wasting...! Wasting...!)

"And then my reign can resume!"

Though, truth be told
I'm starting from my old
Cachet back a LOT
What I would love
A heaping platter of
His payback SERVED HOT!

So, boys gather 'round
Listen very close
'cause this is how the plot will play
Till I've got Triton
Right in my sway...

First, get the girl
Then we'll get her daddy
Then we'll make her pay and pay
And leave 'em wasting, wasting away!!!!
