Orizaba, Spoken:
Although i must say, it's the least you can do since I am about to give you the greatest gift of all - the gift of eternal night
Orizaba:
I've been waiting so long to return
To this land of mine
I've been trapped in the spirit world
Forced to bide my time
But I've returned to rescue everyone
From the blistering heat of the terrible sun
No more glare getting in your eye
No more sunburns to make you cry
You are going to have it made
When you live in eternal shade
You'll see twilight can't be beat
Just watch out when you cross the street
It will be dusky delight
When I give you the gift of night
Elena, Spoken:
What do you mean, give us the gift of night?
Orizaba, Spoken:
There is a magical jewel, the Eye of Midnight. Those pesky Maruvians hid it from me in one of their temples. Last visit I couldn't find it, but I will this time. And when I place the jewel on top of the Sun Stone,
Orizaba:
You can walk on the beach all day
Your ice cream won't even melt away
No hot sand to scorch your feet
You are in for the coolest treat
This long daymare will finally end
Let the nighttime be your friend
You'll thank me with all of your might
When I give you the gift of night
The gift of night
No, the future's not bright
Oh, but that is all right
So you've got to hold tight
And I'll give you the gift
Of night
