The World's Greatest Criminal Mind From "The Great Mouse Detective" Composed by Henry Mancini From the brain that brought you the Big Ben caper The head that made headlines in every newspaper And wondrous things like the Tower Bridge job That cunning display that made Londoners sob Now comes the real tour de force Tricky and wicked of course My earlier crimes were fine for their times But now that I'm at it again An even grimmer plot has been simmering In my great criminal brain [Chorus:] Even meaner? You mean it? Worse than the widows and orphans you drowned? You're the best of the worst around Oh, Ratigan Oh, Ratigan The rest fall behind To Ratigan To Ratigan The world's greatest criminal mind [Chorus:] Oh, Ratigan Oh, Ratigan You're tops and that's that To Ratigan To Ratigan To Ratigan the world's greatest rat [Chorus:] Even louder We'll shout it! No one can doubt what we know you can do You're more evil than even you Oh, Ratigan Oh, Ratigan You're one of a kind To Ratigan To Ratigan The world's greatest criminal mind
