Teridax - Be Prepared lyrics

It’s finally here, the thing you’ve all been waiting for! (or probably not)

The interlude is kinda tough to get, I guess - but since it’s an interlude it doesn’t matter that much I’d say. Otherwise I think this one turned out alright. If (for whatever reason) you want to see more of this kind:

Dume - Prove yourselves
Teridax - You’re welcome

I wonder why in all three of them Teridax is the lead singer :thinking:


Aaanyways:
By now you know the drill:

Scene: The Convocation
(For those not well versed in Bionicle G1 lore - at the Convocation Teridax became leader of the Brotherhood and the Makuta decided to plot against Mata Nui)

Original song (this one has an intro (which I quite like) that wasn’t included in the movie)


Lyrics:

(Intro: Teridax)
I thought the Barraki were just upstarts
Big plans, but goals impossible to obtain
But upon some further considerations
We Makuta might possess the power to reign

(Teridax)
I know it must sound quite appalling
You might even be terrified
But before you object – try recalling
Have you ever felt satisfied?

For millennia we’ve done our duty
Created Rahi, protected the universe
But who received thanks for nature’s beauty?
Who is the guardian hailed in song and verse?

So prepare for the chance of a lifetime
Be prepared for sensational news
Our ascend to power
Could begin this hour

(Antroz)
And what makes you so sure?

(Teridax)
Don’t worry, it’s secure

We would be in control
Could reach our every goal
When at last we are given our dues
And injustice deliciously squared
Be prepared!

Interlude

(Gorast)
Yeah, be prepared! We’ll be prepared! - To arms!

(Teridax)
No, we will need time.

(Gorast)
Time? Time for what?

(Teridax)
For adequate preparations. And we’ll be more subtle, too.

(Bitil)
Hey, then what are we waiting for?
Let’s do it!

(Miserix)
Idiots! Can’t you see this is treason!

(Antroz)
But, he has a-

(Miserix)
Worse than treason! This is madness and I will never allow it!

(Teridax)
Alright, then let the Brotherhood decide.

End of Interlude

(Teridax’s supporters)
It’s time we show them our power
And claim what is rightfully due

(Teridax)
Do not forget word mustn’t leave this tower
Secrecy is key to our coup
Changes have to be initiated
The perfect moment to be arranged
But as I have already stated
In the end history will be changed!

(Teridax) ------------------------------------------------ (Teridax’s supporters)
So prepare to set things into motion
Be prepared to earn your right
Meticulous planning----------------------------------We’ll wield power
Tenacity spanning-------------------------------------They will cower
Eternal denial-------------------------------------------Full control
Is simply why I’ll----------------------------------------Play a role
Lead us to predominance
Make us be true prominence
Let them see the Brotherhood’s might
Yes, now let it be once more declared
Be prepared!

(Teridax and supporters)
Yes, now let it be once more declared
Be prepared!

I forgot how good this song was in the first place, and those new lyrics just click. Maybe it’s because of other videos I’ve been watching, but I could just see an animated Teridax pacing and gesturing as I read this.
