about

Apolyon rears his ugly head again as none other than the judge in the Vanity Fair courtroom .. a courtroom that closer resembles a circus.

lyrics

  BABY I'M THE BEST.

APPOLYON:
How did I get to be who am,
How did I get to be Number One?
There's only one rule that means success,
Honey baby chile, you gotta be the best.

Like Huntley Brinkley with the news,
Like Shirley Bassey with the blues,
Like Crocket and Jones with a pair of shoes,
Baby I'm the best.

GIRLS CHORUS:
He's the best
Like Jody Scheckter in a car,
Like Brendan Behan with a jar,
Like Gary Player under par,
Baby he's the best.

APPOLYON:
And I am the judge,

GIRLS:
He's the judge,

APPOLYON:
You are the Jury,

GIRLS:
We're the jury,

APPOLYON:
I've studied law to the 9th degree,
Nobody's gonna lay a con on me.

APPOLYON:
Like Harold Robbins with a book,
Like Raquel Welsh with a sexy look,
Like Marciano with a put-up duke,
Baby I'm the best.

GIRLS
He's the best,
Like Walter Disney with a duck,
Like Poncherello with a runaway truck,
Like Eschel Rhoodie with a buck,
Baby he's the best.

APPOLYON:
How did get to be who I am,
How did I get to be Number One?
There's only one rule that means success,
Honey baby chile, you gotta be,
Honey baby chile, you gotta be the ... best!
