Especially the first 13 lines:
"I'm malicious, mean and scary
My sneer could curdle dairy
And violence-wise,
my hands are not the cleanest
But despite my evil look
And my temper, and my hook
I've always yearned to be a concert pianist
Can'tcha see me on the stage performin' Mozart?
Tickling the ivories 'til they gleam?
Yep, I'd rather be called deadly
For my killer show-tune medley
Thank you!
'Cause way down deep inside I've got a dream"


TANGLED
I got tangled up with him.
Gesundheit! = Bless you!
Sharks are scary.
I am scared of sharks.
curdle 凝乳する
His voice makes my blood curdle.
Do you play the piano?
I like to tickle the ivories once in a while.
You killed them! = Great performance!
X I saw a dream.
