Wormilton - Opening Number by ProfessorCrispy

How does a bullying victim, kicked to the curb by her best friend,
Ripped, pulled and frayed to her threads end,
Blessed then with power to control slightly macroscopic critters,
Turn out to be the supervillain Skitter?

No heavy hitter, more “death of a thousand stingers”,
As her world got grimmer, her justifications: thinner,
Her chance of survival slimming, her view on authority dimming
But in Bet where flying bricks are blasé, she became a kingpin.

For now she’s just a spy, tryna worm her way inside the Undersiders,
For Armsmaster’s pride he keeps her fake up,
But I’m sorry Taylor, wake up, once you are insinuated,
Would you ever cut ties with the first team that’d take you?

A darkness generator, a joint manipulator,
Paranoia activator, and a mongrel monster maker
This last one gave her trouble: Bitch’s bitches on her case,
So our girl kicked her in the face, and… yeah, that pretty much set the pace.

Well, the heroes bunkered down, they said “This chick is insane guys!
Hostage-taking spiders, and blood-drugging mayflies,
Merely motor control, or can she see through they eyes?
Either way she’s never surprised, Let’s give her a name guys…

Skitter, Queen of Brockton Bay. They call me Skitter, Queen of Brockton Bay
And just a single shoe has dropped today. But just you wait. Just you wait…

She hit 13: her mother died, out driving and texting,
Her friend abandoned her, and her father disconnected,
Danny please! Roaches are writing the writing on the wall!
But so scared of what he might do, he did... nothing at all.

Locked inside a locker, ironically opens up her mind,
Sending out tendrils while it hides a message deep inside,
A voice saying: “Fight! Hurt the bully, save the victim!
But never think too critically about which group you fit in”

Tattletale was no fool, she saw that Taylor was days away
From going Carrie on the school, or walking straight into the Bay
She started smirking! Working for her new friend’s sanity
Showing fun crimes, and hot guys were among the perks of villainy

Now she’s scamming for her place in the superhero Pantheon
Or planning for a Face Turn she’ll never pull the trigger on
Either way for the sake of her people, her town
In Brockton, she’ll hit bedrock, then dig down

Just you wait…

Skitter Queen of Brockton Bay!
When any cape comes for you,
You will always crack down, you always have to escalate!
Skitter Queen of Brockton Bay!
When all of Bet judges you
Will they know why you chose this way
All the sacrifice you made,
And let - you take - another name?

The bugs are acting funny now, better make an exit,
She’s got her mask and armour on, No longer so pathetic,
No matter what the stress she’s never less than copacetic,

Three created her
Many hated her
Five stayed with her, and felt betrayed by her,
And us? We thought that we could take her.

It’s a million and a half words long… So just you wait!

What’s the name guys?

Skitter, Queen of Brockton Bay!
