What happens when Carter goes to save his girlfr... er, Zia and is cornered by Menshikov and Desjardins?:

The House of Life on Your Side

Carter:

It must be nice, it must be nice to have

The House on your side.

It must be nice, it must be nice to have

The House on your side.

Ev'ry action has its equal, opposite reactions.

Our team has been fractured into factions.

Try not to crack under the stress,

Not to give in on distractions.

Menshikov smacks us in the press,

and he doesn't print retractions.

I don't understand how Desjardins can stand his fits of passion,

The way he primps and preens and dresses like the pits of fashion.

We're just a bunch of kids living ration to ration,

As their looking for a place to put our ash in.

Trust me, it ain't trouble what I'm asking, I just had to finish my task.

Had to find Zia and rescue her, even tho the chance are starting to look slim.

My situation's confusing enough without having to hear Bes mock it.

While we weren't watching, Menshikov and Desjarding got us in their pocket.

It must be nice, it must be nice to have

The House on your side.

It must be nice, it must be nice to have

The House on your side.

I can feel the fire she ignites,

As she floats.

I'm glad she hasn't died.

It's so nice, it's so nice she had

Iskandar on her side.

Desjardins may be trying his best to govern and

that's nice, but Menshikov is out for a prize.

Look in his eyes!

See how he lies!

Follow the scent of his enterprise.

Though we gotta him some credit

for always being so f-ing competitive.

Desj:

If we don't stop you we aid and abet you

Carter:

Well, take it as a sign.

Desj:

This attitude is something we can do without!

Mensh:

Somebody has to stand up to his mouth!

If there's a fire you're trying to douse

You should've done it before it reached the House!

I'm so glad you paid Egypt a visit in-

Desj:

Vlad, my orders are explicit.

Mensh:

If you ain't gon' listen

To a disciplined dissident, this is the difference:

This kid is out!

Carter:

Oh!

It seems like the ending is close!

Oh!

And just then a portal explodes under their toes!

Oh!

Sadie:

Let's show those magicians what they're up against!

Oh!

Mensh:

Stupid meddling kids, you'll get in my hands!

Carter:

Oh!

Bes's ugliness gets rid of our foes.

Oh!

Sadie asks what happened with his nose.

Oh!

All that's left is reading the book to see where it leads.

Get in the weeds, finish the deeds

That would destroy the House's creeds.

All:

It must be nice,

It must be nice

Carter:

What could happen nobody knows.

All:

It must be nice,

It must be nice

Sadie:

We gotta find all three of Ra's souls.

All:

Not to act invincible,

But we'll survive the night.

Still,

It must be nice, it must be nice to have

The House of Life on your side.
