I’m a King Koopa

I’m a King Koopa is a song by American actor Will Arnett from the film Super Mario Bros. The song was released as a single on March 20th 2020 and was critically acclaimed, many considering it to be the best part of the movie.

Concept
The film's initial draft did not incorporate a musical background for Bowser. Christopher Miller however ,one of the film's co-directors, told GameSpot he wanted a musical Bowser after Will Arnett started singing before one their takes. He wanted Bowser to have a “really bad” musical number that “you can stop listing to”. Two days later, Arnett completed the final recording of the song with a track completed a day later.

Lyrics
What is up Everybody! Are you ready Koopa Nation?, Ready Rock and Roll and ball and crawl over my awesome mite!? We’ll destroy the Mushroom Kingdom (SREAMS), Rule the World (SCREAMS), Marry Princess Peach (CONFUSION) and then takeover the Galaxy!!! (SCREAMS), (Prelude)

I'm the King of Koopas, hear me roar, My castle's the finest on every shore, With fire breath and spikes, I strike with might, I'm the baddest villain, the ultimate fight. (Verse 1)

Bowser, Bowser, ruling the land, With an iron fist and a wicked plan, I'm the one you fear, the ultimate foe, No one can stop me, I'll steal the show. (Chorus)

I've got an army of minions, loyal and true, Koopas, Goombas, and Troopas too, Together we conquer, we're a force to be reckoned, In my quest for power, I'll never be second. (Verse 2)

Bowser, Bowser, the king of the game, With my spiky shell and my fearsome flame, I'll take what I want, I'll make it mine, In this world of Mario, it's Bowser's time. (Chorus)

I'll capture the princess, make her mine, Force her to marry, control all of time, We'll stomp on those plumbers, Mario and his bro. They'll never defeat me, they don't stand a chance, no. I'll prove to the world that I can't go wrong. (Bridge)

Bowser, Bowser, the tyrant of might, But heroes will rise and stand up to the fight, In the end, justice will prevail, Bowser's reign of terror, we will derail. (Chorus)

So beware, Mushroom Kingdom, for I'm here to stay, With my claws and my fire, I'll have my way, But heroes will rise and together we'll fight, In this eternal battle of dark against light.
