Letra:

(A-a-a-are you ready?)
Old Lord Spanish was stompin around
His own Felt Manor like a big playground
When suddenly Vaska burst from the shade
And hit Lord Spanish with a ball of eight
Lord Spanish was pissed and decided to strife
Right before getting stabbed by a really dull knife
When the fearsome Jack Noir burst onto the scene
As Jaed Hardly crashed it in a flash of green
And she sicced her doggod on the Sovereign Slayer
But they heard someone shout "Yo homes smell ya later!"
Out came Kraket with some weapons and loot
And Dabe Stidrer too in his birthday suit
And he took a pair of handcuffs from his cold, chained hands
Locked Vaska to a clonk all according to plan
As sirens blared on in a violent clamour
Femorafreak vowed to send the trole to the slammer

This is the ultimate "o"down of ultimate destiny
Cool guys, new guys, and webcomics
As far as the eye can see
And only one will survive
I wonder who it will be?
This is the ultimate "o"down of ultimate destiny

Lord Spanish threw a punch at Femorafreak
And called on Cans to knock him into next week
Then Jack came back ready for his next attack
But Hecka Jef ran in and stabbed him in the back
And Vrasky had realized the cop had lost her trail
When Dabe Stidrer knew he'd be sending her to jail
But he suddenly stopped and his blood ran cold
And daddy Jhon Ebgret put him in a chokehold
And he saw Lord Spanish sneaking up from behind
So he reached for his ham which he just couldn't find
Cause Vrasky stole it from him for some extra weight
But Hecka Jef nabbed it off her fictional plate
And he ran towards Jhon ready for revenge
As Dabe sprang forward with a dad to defend
As quick as a flash, they collided in the air
And they both got spooked by a Lil Cal stare

This is the ultimate "o"down of ultimate destiny
Cool guys, new guys, and webcomics
As far as the eye can see
And only one will survive
I wonder who it will be?
This is the ultimate "o"down...

Cherubs cried out
A frightening jingle
From the ninth circle
Arose Chuck Tingle
Who delivered a pounding
Into Jhon's butt
That ruptured his organs
And made him nut
And he fell on the ground
His life now a mess
As Vrasky absconded
With Snoman's dress
But Chuck saw right through
Her clever disguise
And tore her ass open
With just his eyes

Then Snoman's black inches and the staff of Hunk Rump
And Penumbra Gunshow Singalong's Trump
Apple Girlington and Robbie Rotten
Tensei Face and Michael Guy Bowman
Toby Fox Spades Sleck Fresh Jimmy Matchsticks
Grand Dad crank dat 720 memes to pick
Hadron Kaleido and Mobius Trip
Itchy Momi and Bilious Slick

All came out of nowhere lightning fast
And pounded Chuck Tingle in his viral ass
It was the sexiest battle that "o" would dare write
With his readers looking on in hypnotized fright
The battle ended to thunderous cheers
When Hiveswap released after ten thousand years
The champion stood, we bowed our heads and knew
It was Neil Cicierega giving credit where it's due

This is the ultimate "o"down of ultimate destiny
Cool guys, new guys, and webcomics
As far as the eye can see
And only one will survive
I wonder who it will be?
This is the ultimate "o"down (This is the ultimate "o"down)
This is the ultimate "o"down (This is the ultimate "o"down)
This is the ultimate "o"down... of ultimate destiny!

SplitSuns: (Composer)

While talking in the CaNMT server, I had the dumbest idea for a parody of the Neil Cicierega song "The Ultimate Showdown" wherein the various characters in the song were replaced with Homestuck and CaNWC characters. I wrote out the first verse on a whim, and I knew I had to make a full song around it. I wrote the lyrics first, and once wheals and I made sure they were of a sufficient quality, I started work on the instrumental. I tried to make it be as faithful to the original song as possible, but added my own twists to it through additional sequences and some light referencing of other Homestuck songs. Initially the instrumentation was very similar to Neil's work, but I later went back and changed it to make it more synth-y. I also experimented with fitting leitmotifs into the mix in a CaNH-style way where they fit with the lyrics, but I felt they were too shoehorned in. Finally, I approached WHATISLOSTINTHEMINES to help me out by actually singing the thing, since I can't sing for shit (not even in an ironically good way.) Once he was finished, I did my best to mix it into the song in a pleasing way. Making this song was a real challenge for me, since I never really work with vocals in my music. As a result, I don't feel it's my best work, but I hope you guys will enjoy it and find it funny!

The original idea for this art was a mish-mash of a bunch of scenes from the "Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny" Flash animation made around a decade ago (you know the one) into one image, replacing the characters from the flash with the relevant characters from this song. I got as far as drawing Jhon staring at Lord Spanish/English before realizing that it would be way too cluttered and unnecessary, so instead Split and I searched through the entire animation to try and find a scene that we could use. I decided on copying a still where Mr. Rogers is shedding a single tear for all that fell in the majestic battle. Dabe isn't the victor of the "O"down (spoilers!), but since he's shown crying all the time in CANWC, I decided to draw him. (I also didn't feel like spoiling the ACTUAL victor.) And that's pretty much all there is to it.

Split asked me sing and I said yes so now I am a lord bow down to me
