Hang me, watch awhile
Let me see you smile as I die

ZIM sat on the couch with GIR as the little robot watched the Scary Monkey show. From outside the protests of the Earth stink Dib could be heard as the lawn gnomes dragged him off. The Irken narrowed his eyes as he thought of the future. What if he lost? What if the human won?

He could see himself being tortured, tormented, broken, and captive all at once. Dib would enjoy every single moment of it... ZIM could even picture the smug smirk Dib would have on his lips.


Take me, as my body burns
Let me see you yearn, while I cry

Water...would they use water? Intense pain through the disgusting liquid, or would Dib order horrible sorts of experiments...an autopsy perhaps? The human would surely relish every scream ZIM cried, every tear shed because of pain....


One step on your own
And you walk all over me
One head in the clouds
You won't let go
You're too proud

The human might win...? Impossible!! He could not stand against the power of the Irken Elite Invader ZIM! He would be crushed and splurt out...some sort of human-y ooze...


One light to the blind, and they see
One touch on the head, we believe


ZIM had been very lucky humans were the way they were, letting Dib's proclamations fall onto deaf ears, turning away from the obvious facts because the one pointing them out was a 'weirdo...' yes, very fortunate indeed. ZIM grinned.

Adore me as I drift away
Let me hear you say I'm fine
You cry as my body dies
All that you despised is gone away

If Dib did someone manage to expose him, after the endless sets of tortures that were sure to follow, would he, ZIM wondered, regret it? After all, did not humans have a strong sense of pity? If he died at the hands of the dirt child in the future, would the human regret it? All the hate, the smug, victorious smile ZIM was sure Dib would wear, would it be wiped away as life left him?

One step on your own
And you walk all over me
One head in the clouds
You won't let go, you're too proud
One light to the blind, and they see

One touch on the head, we believe

ZIM jumped off the couch and turned to GIR.

"I refuse to let Dib defeat me, GIR. Now, let us go down into the lab and devise another insidious scheme...one that will have Earth-boy fall in its wake!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!"
