[Prodigy:]
I can’t believe I never saw
How insignificant you are

[Rival:]
Ha! You’re outshined in every way

[Prodigy:]
Well if you are such a genius
It didn’t get you very far!

[Rival:]
I’ll prove you wrong
My mind’s growing
Stronger each day!

[Prodigy and Rival:]
No, you won’t deceive me
You’re nothing but a fake
You’re a sad pretender
Trying to take my place

[Prodigy:]
All the years you bullied me,
Taking pleasure in my pain

[Rival:]
It serves you right
Accept your defeat!

[Prodigy:]
But now I realize you only wish
You had my brain!

[Rival:]
One day, you’ll see
You will be needing me!

[Prodigy and Rival:]
No, you won’t deceive me
You’re nothing but a fake
You’re a sad pretender
A total waste of space

[Rival:]
There can only be one

[Prodigy:]
I’m pretty sure that it’s not you!

[Rival:]
Mark these words
Cause one day you’ll see
You will be needing me!
