I'm huddled in the corner, pretending that I'm weak.
I've recently discovered this useful technique
To make nescient people take pity on me.
Will it work on Anakin? Just wait and see.

"Please don't kill me," I say in a whimper.
"He must stand trial!," Ani shouts as his temper
begins to boil, and his defiance grows strong.
This is what I was hoping for all along.

Before Windu can kill me, Ani chops off his hand,
And I win the battle, exactly as planned.
"What have I done?," Ani asks in confusion.
"You're fulfilling your destiny; we're now in collusion."

He knelt before me; my apprentice he became,
I assigned him a task and a brand new name.
"Vader's your new title, and here's what you do:
Go kill all the Jedi and the younglings, too."

"Yes, Master," he says and he goes on his way.
Does he really think this slaughter will save Padme?
I can't use the force to cheat death or save life.
I'm not Darth Plagueis. I can't save his wife.

He's strong in the force, but he still can't discern
That his wife and his baby are not my concern.
I'm Dark Lord of the Sith, and it's strange he can't see
That the only thing I really care about is me.

The time has come for Order 66.
Now those Jedi will really be in a fix!
I get on the transmitter and give orders to my troops;
They outnumber the Jedi and overwhelm them in groups.

My apprentice grows fiercer as he's filled with hate.
The slaughter in the temple was truly great!
Now to Planet Mustafar he has been sent.
The Separatists don't know his true intent.

Imagine the surprise in their Neimoidian eyes
when Vader does his thing and they start dropping like flies.
I'll then control the Sith, Senate, and Court!
I'll keep Vader blinded and retain his support.

Now that I've ultimately got what I want,
This is a fine time for me to flaunt:
My power's well-established, my Empire has spread;
Flipside: Almost all the Jedi are dead!

Peace.
-Darth Sidious
