Faceup, Facedown

Welcome all my honored guests,
To the ultimate duel with the best of the best
At my invitation, you've come to compete,
For the honor of suffering the final defeat

Isn't it grand what I've managed to do?
By kidnapping those closest to you
I've taken their souls to lay on the line,
In a winner-take-all duel for all time

Let's play the game---
I'm sure you all know how
But watch yourselves, my foolish friends---
You're all in my world now!

Faceup, facedown---attack or defend
Faceup, facedown---this battle's to the end
Faceup, facedown---stay on guard
Faceup, facedown---play your strongest card!

My arena awaits us all
I built it myself, it's just down the hall
I wish this day hadn't come so fast---
You see, I truly wanted your pain to last

Faceup, facedown---attack or defend
Faceup, facedown---this battle's to the end
Faceup, facedown---stay on guard
Faceup, facedown---play your strongest card!

All your cunning strategies,
All the tricks you try,
Look like merely child's play
To my Millennium Eye!

(spoken)

Your turn, Yugi-boy!

What's wrong, now, you look so sad
Losing your soul doesn't feel that bad
Those you love have told me so,
And soon, my friends, you too will know!

Let's play the game---
I'm sure you all know how
But watch yourselves, my foolish friends---
You're all in my world now!

Faceup, facedown---attack or defend
Faceup, facedown---this battle's to the end
Faceup, facedown---stay on guard
Faceup, facedown---play your strongest card!
