The Naga-style hoity laugh at the end is what really sells this for me- D.C. Belle being a "villainess" whose opinion of her talents is delusional, but out of unbridled optimism instead of narcissism. I even imagine she has a Naga-esque back story is actually a wealthy debutante who fell for the Banzai Blaster's creed, wanted friends, wanted to fit in, and part of why it's fun for her is she's rich enough to get out of jail very quickly for her obviously minor offences.

I love the slow shift between the old version and the new version. When you start the video you barely notice a difference, but by the end when the singer is going off and everything is upbeat. It's a total tone shift but done so well. You don't even notice it until you rewatch the video and hear the tone shift.

Imagine being the cop at 3:24 and the criminal you just arrested is singing about how they shouldn’t have waited for their mom to pick them up and just keeps singing in the car ride to jail

It’s moments like this that make me glad that the show was popular enough to produce songs and books like this because this right here is a treat to watch and listen to!

The production for this is top-tier. Having Or3o go down an octave for the last half of the chorus was a really smart decision, mostly because the original high notes make for good harmony, and the bass riff during the breakdown is my personal favorite part. Also, speaking as a sucker for rhymes, the lyrics are great. :D

It's amazing the difference in tone concerning the Banzai Blasters, in this song and Great at Cowboy. Here they're just a goofier team rocket, while in the other song, They literally execute a child's parents in front of her

I very much enjoy the main vocalist's Banzai Blaster, especially with how proud she is at getting arrested because it means that they are definitely evil.
