ACT TWO

"The Super Nova Shines Darkly"

Peter's career takes a meteoric rise to the top of the charts. All the while he is under the careful tutelage of Abraxius his new mentor. Peter also falls in love with Valentina who becomes his one bit of stability in an otherwise crazy existence. Unbeknownst to Peter, Abraxius is set on corrupting Peter to the dark side. After 2 albums and nonstop touring Valentina helps Peter wake up and he goes back to crusade for world peace.

The super secret council of 13 that rules the world has it's annual meeting. Number 1 is not very happy about what Peter has done with his anti land mine campaign.
CRIME OF THE CENTURY - sung by number 1


The Rappers tell the story.

lyrics

RAPATATIVE #3

In a room made of gold
Are lives bought and sold
Locked well out of sight
Where power makes right
Meet twelve different faces
Of far ancient races
There is yet one more
Who sits high off the floor
With threads in his hand
They dance his command
They lay it all down
And bow to the crown
Cause word gets around

It's they who decide
Where it's genocide
Interest in amounts
In numbered accounts
Grab up all the wealth
While reducing the health
Of the mindless masses
And all the fat asses

They talk about numbers
And devious plunders
What new kind of pill
For some other ill
And how to control
The mind and the soul
The time is now right
To bring on the night
Armageddon is now
Just a matter of how
The way is made clear
So tremble in fear
For our rule is here
CH>
All that you do in your life is be true
To yourself and you’ll find you can leave it behind
And create something new do away with the few
Who would make us all small who would see us all crawl
It’s what you believe and the things you concieve
That determine your fate and it’s never too late
To let go of the fear have a mind that is clear
And be a star

Continued...


My dear Abraxius
What's all this fuss
This annoying Peter boy
Has broken my toy
What's mine is mine
Let flow the wine
This thing must be done
Because I like my fun
No ting to worry Mon
Paul Joy soon be done
First me gonna try
Make him my ally
Soon the babies cry

It's they who decide
Where it's genocide
Interest in amounts
In numbered accounts
Grab up all the wealth
While reducing the health
Of the mindless masses
And all the fat asses
