8 From The Shadows Of Night

Notes

CzarThwomp: I don’t know which was harder- having to deal with such a heavy emphasis on the chorus or coming up with lyrics for one of the most forgettable “Ace Attorney” villains ever created. As you’ll probably notice, unlike the other songs that I’ve written for this fanfic, there is no narrative. And that’s because I honestly couldn’t think of anything more that needed to be said outside of the lyrics. Now sit back and enjoy a song that probably haunted Simon Keyes’ nightmares for many years.

JP: This zany ditty (from the Miles 2 game) involves President Huang’s body double voicing his murderous intentions… hats off to Simon Keyes for the shizz he got away with/from!

“From the Shadows of Night”
Sung to the tune of “In the Dark of the Night” from Disney’s Anastasia

In the middle of the night, my sleep was most restless,
Made worse by the dream that kept haunting me,
It almost made my mind break!
A president uncovered as a fake!

I was once a loyal body double to Huang,
(Oooh, ah oooh.)
But my hard work was rewarded with only a pang!
(Oooh, ah oooh.)
My wrath made him dearly pay,
But one little orphan boy got away!

(From the shadows of night, the President will find him!)
(From the shadows of night, the President will make sure he’s gone!)
No one will oppose me,
My rule will be so carefree!
(From the shadows of night!)
No one will hear his screams!

My people are becoming displeased more each day,
So I must not give them more reason to fight back!
But when my plans fall into place,
Those fears will be instantly erased!

(From the shadows of night, The President will mute him!)
I will be his executioner!
(From the shadows of night, his future looks sooo grim!)
Soon he will scream,
As I destroy his self-esteem!
(From the shadows of night!)

(From the shadows of night, The President will bludgeon him!)
(From the shadows of night, his worst fears will come alive!)
Foolish boy, you will cry,
As I gloat and cheer “Banzai!”
(From the shadows of night!)

Come, my cohorts,
Work for your boss,
Help the baddest guy!
(From the shadows of night!)
(From the shadows of-)
Find him for me,
And know what I imply!
(From the shadows of night!)
(From the shadows of night!)
(From the shadows of night!)
Simon Keyes will die!
