An Impostor Calls (Impostor)

Just another day of duties on the Skeld
Slightly spooked by all the crew that we've expelled
Out the airlock, thinking that we're Sherlock
Trying to ensure whatever is aboard is sent to hell

'Cause I've a sneaking suspicion there's a freak on the mission
And they're picking us off one by one
But with each wrong decision, we are missing a technician
And there's isn't anywhere to run
Did you hear that?
One by one, your crew decreases
Better finish the task, that's in here and dash
In fact, I'm a beginner at this, but still, I'll give it a bash
Unclear if anybody witnessed me get rid of the trash
But if they didn't, we're in for a nasty, imminent crash

The killer has to be diligent, 'cause a slip of the mask
Could mean the difference between winning and getting evacuated
We're trapped in a heated debate on who's a friend or foe
Will you be yeeted to space? Don't know, depends on the vote

Now I'm losing faith in my crew
And I'm pointing fingers at you
We're finding them gone, one by one
Until we're finally down to two
I know that I've got nothing to prove
And so, have you been telling the truth?
Well, I'm placing my faith in the vacuum of space
'Cause, face it, we haven't a clue

I hate to vent, but I'm gonna get accusatory
By the vent, well, I just saw something super gory
Brought you here to hear my story, listen up or you'll be sorry
If you're in a room with Blue, I put to you that you should worry

For goodness' sake! You must be mistaken
If you're making such a baseless accusation
I mean, look at his face
Isn't it innocent? Fragrant as a cinnamon bake
So you better shift the blame or face your imminent fate

I was in Electrical, inspecting all the wires
I know you're sceptical, I tell you he's conspired
I swear I saw a flash of tentacles eviscerate the ventricles
Of one magenta gent that Blue offensively retired

That's a lie! I didn't do it! It was you and I can prove it!
Let's retrieve the CCTV, we will see the culprit while we view it
No need, I've seen it and deleted it already
I swear, these days only repeats are on the telly

Now I'm losing faith in my crew
And I'm pointing fingers at you
We're finding them gone, one by one
Until we're finally down to two
I know that I've got nothing to prove
And so, have you been telling the truth?
Well, I'm placing my faith in the vacuum of space
'Cause, face it, we haven't a clue

Red alert, we need security! There has been a murder spree!
Isn't it suspicious that no witnesses were there to see?
Would you quit giving me the third degree? Refer to Green!
Green's dead, his bleeding head's in the infirmary!

We urgently need an emergency meeting
To determine what we should do, but everyone's speaking, mute 'em!
There's been a mutiny of mutants who are being a nuisance
So we need scrutiny to foresee which beans are human

It's either me or you, the people viewing can see the truth, look!
Methinks the lady doth be pleading just a wee bit too much

Would the crew please report to the bridge?
Crew to the bridge
Thank you!

It's you or me, it's me or you
And I can't see what we should do
We'll cast a vote, and when we're through
We'll save the ship, or doom the crew

Now I'm losing faith in my crew
And I'm pointing fingers at you
We're finding them gone, one by one
Until we're finally down to two
I know that I've got nothing to prove
And so, have you been telling the truth?
Well, I'm placing my faith in the vacuum of space
'Cause, face it, we haven't a clue

I say it's him!
He says it's me we should dispatch!
So cast a vote and blast a bloke out of the hatch

One by one, your crew decreases
You came in peace, but you left in pieces
The Impostor's stopped, did you want an award?
Who's to say I was the only one aboard?
Just let me unlock the manifolds
