* In the "Goblins" one-shot in ''WebVideo/CriticalRole'', each of the players has a "Goblin Song" that they can sing at any point in the game for a re-roll. All of them are used in the session, all of them are hilarious, and [[spoiler:all but one of the re-rolls are ''worse'']].
* Parodied multiple times by WebVideo/ProZD:
** [[https://youtu.be/YOtIc4YMRZ4 An example]]:
--->'''King Dragon (singing):''' Who cares if those orphans were sad? It feels good to be bad!\\
''(Gets stabbed with a katana)''\\
'''Dennis:''' ...What? He's been singing for, like, two minutes.
** [[https://youtu.be/wgsYH21Gh0Y He also gets a rap number.]]
* Slovenian parodist Klemen Slakonja's ''Putin, Putout'' at [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t-wFKNy0MZQ]] is a hilarious send-up of the Russian leader that would put any Disney villain song to shame, complete with references to Pussy Riot, Eurovision, dancing bears and other theatrics.

* Creator/FilmCow's "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=erpb8D6egLk Make Me Smile]]", sung by a psychotic anthropomorphic ferret definitely counts. It's a cheerful, jaunty tune that features holocaust denial, a pro eugenics attitude, molestation, murder and cannibalism. It's absolutely hilarious.
* The extended version of The Electric Cheese YouTubePoop ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9z7DfQO3IAA Robotnik gives Sally the AIDs]]'' adds the songs "Still Monitor His Every Move" and "Make Sure He's Finished", both performed by ''WesternAnimation/SonicTheHedgehogSatAM'' Robotnik by way of a VoiceClipSong.

* Dr. Horrible's revenge song ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GVda8HD7rg8 Brand New Day]]'' in Act II of ''WebVideo/DrHorriblesSingAlongBlog''. Which is well and truly blown out of the water by his song ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K5Nx5yw5Ihc Slipping]]'' in Act III of the series. Which is then torpedoed by the final song of the show, ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZNqaAh6iLU Everything You Ever]]''. By this point, the shiver-inducing ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ad6-MRmZ5IU My Eyes]]'' (or ''On the Rise'') has been left long behind. Combined with the ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheBraveAndTheBold'' examples, it's clear that Creator/NeilPatrickHarris is made of Villain Songs.
** It helps a bit that the latter part of ''Everything You Ever'', between the second and third verses, has sort of a DarkReprise, with a chorus in the background singing to the tune of ''Brand New Day''.
** Though because Dr. Horrible is a VillainProtagonist, (and at least three of his songs describe his villainous motives), this trope is probably better exemplified by Captain Hammer's ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oafRdw6ofmw Everyone's a Hero in Their Own Way]]'' near the end of the film, which demonstrates he's a complete jerk while superficially sounding heroic.
-->''Everyone's a hero in their own way''\\
''Everyone has villains they must face''\\
''They're not as cool as mine''\\
''But folks, you know it's fine''\\
''To know your place...''
** Given how unnecessarily brutal he is to Doctor Horrible (he could probably have stopped him without grabbing him by the neck and slamming his head into a van or throwing a car at his head) and the fact that he [[spoiler:tries to murder Dr. Horrible in the end (granted, Horrible intended to murder him first, but two wrongs don't make a right)]], one [[AlternativeCharacterInterpretation could perhaps argue]] that Hammer is also a villain anyway. That would make ''Everyone's A Hero'' a straighter example of this trope and ''A Man's Gotta Do'' an unusual case of a villain song started by one villain and then hijacked by [[EvilVersusEvil an opposing villain]] (since Horrible starts it and Hammer takes over).
** And the two versions of the ''Bad Horse Chorus'', sung on behalf of the Evil League of Evil's leader.
** It can be argued that every song in Dr. Horrible's Singalong Blog is a Villain Song except for 'Caring Hands' and 'Penny's Song' (both of them being sung by Penny). 'My Freeze Ray' is somewhat on the ropes, it's more about love, but it has it's more sinister lines, plus it's sung by the anti-villain anyways. So They Say is similar in that the majority of it isn't evil, though Captain Hammer and Dr. Horrible both have lines in the song.
* Played with in [[WebVideo/GuaranteedVideo New Kids On The Rock's]] Christmas special, [[http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=xgATOpbyeBE Ryan's Christmas Wish]]: The LargeHam villain The Misery Meister gets his own jaunty alliteration-filled villain song (which occurs about 11:51 into this video), but the flashiness is limited to intentionally stiff dancing, tossing rag dolls around, and menacingly wielding a small meat grinder, and after a verse we flash forward two minutes later to the very ending of the song. Also, as a FunnyBackgroundEvent, Ryan is seen yawning and rubbing his eyes after the song is finally finished.
* ''WebVideo/EpicRapBattlesOfHistory'': Whenever one of the rappers is a villain in their original work, expect them to boast about their evil deeds. Whenever the battle is EvilVsEvil, it's a ''double'' example as both rappers attempt to out-villain the other.

** [[VillainProtagonist Strong Bad]] often opens his [[WebAnimation/StrongBadEmail email-answering series]] with a brief song, usually about [[ItsAllAboutMe how great he is]] and[=/=]or [[TakeThatAudience how not-great the people who email him are]].
** BreakoutCharacter [[NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast Trogdor the Burninator]] has a [[https://youtu.be/90X5NJleYJQ?t=152 kickass thrash metal theme song]] sung by Strong Bad which (attempts to) explain its backstory and detail how powerful it is. A longer and better-sounding version can be heard on the "Strong Bad Sings and Other Type Hits" CD mentioned below, or as an unlockable song in ''VideoGame/GuitarHero 2''.
** Strong Bad actually released an entire CD of songs sung by him (and other characters), but out of all the tracks only "You've Got an Ugly & Stupid BUTT", "The ladies in my town all know my name", "Somebody Told Me (Now I Believe Them)", and the aforementioned "Trogdor" really qualify as Villain Songs.
** On Trogdor's [[MilestoneCelebration fifth anniversary,]] Strong Bad made a song for his original attempt at drawing a dragon, The "S is for Sucks" Dragon. Despite being ''vastly'' different in tone, [[LyricalDissonance the song still mentions that the dragon kills people and is feared by everyone.]]
* ''WebAnimation/{{RWBY}}'':
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zTdLRu45sMY "When It Falls"]], the opening theme of Volume 3, is either from Cinder or Salem's perspective, and describes how the world will fall and innocents will perish in massive quantities. The singer goes on to blame the subject (likely Ozpin) for the death and destruction that will befall their people, and how division and disharmony will be rampant in this new {{Dystopia}}.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B5yY4aGqUsc "I'm the One"]] plays during Emerald and Mercury's tournament battle against Coco and Yatsuhashi. The song is sung from the perspective of Emerald and Mercury, talking about how their pasts have placed their combat and Semblance abilities far above those of their opponents. Some of the smack-talking and boasting in the song coincide with dialogue and actions that occur during the fight. Coco and Yatsuhashi, who are considered some of Beacon Academy's star fighters, are completely curb-stomped by the villainous duo, confirming how dangerous Emerald and Mercury are to student-level fighters.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zDXgbdhj5Zc "Divide"]] first plays during the ending of the Volume 3 finale, which introduces the BigBad, Salem. During the show's pilot episode and the final episode of Volume 3, Salem gives a long speech about the origin of legends and humanity, and how [[BigGood Ozpin's]] correct to consider humanity stronger when it unites. She boasts of her plan to divide humanity and destroy everything that Ozpin has worked for, concluding that she can't wait to watch him burn. The song "Divide" takes its lyrics from Salem's two speeches, also ending with the desire to watch him burn. From Volume 4, certain refrains from the song [[{{Leitmotif}} play in the background]] whenever she is on screen and scheming.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TY-aMggjF-s "Lionize"]] is introduced during the Volume 6 Character Short which details how Adam became a villain. The song is a self-aggrandizing boast about how a lifetime of torture and abuse at the hands of humanity creates a hero that will become immortalized as a legend for crushing and subjugating humanity. The Short is about how the [[LittleBitBeastly Faunus]] elevate Adam in power and status for being the hero they've been yearning for, to fight humanity for their rights. However, the Short also ends with Adam losing everything because ego, selfishness and obsession leads to everyone who once had faith in him turning on him for becoming a monster.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BzYAKDUaR18 "All Things Must Die"]] plays during the fight between Raven Branwen and Cinder Fall in the Vault of the Spring Maiden. Reflecting the views of both villains, the lyrics reflect the battle as they explain that all things come to an end, and that the others' life is about to be ended. As the song progresses, they urge the other to give up and surrender to death.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGQ_xx1mIoU "One Thing"]] plays when Neo returns to the screen in Volume 6, explaining why she's decided to fight Cinder. It hints at her past, suggesting that she was alone and without purpose until Roman Torchwick changed her life and gave her a name. [[spoiler:She blames Cinder for what happened to Roman and that she's fallen onto hard times once more since his death. The Neo that fights Cinder is wearing tattered clothing and Roman's hat, and Cinder has to directly address the death of Roman to end the fight.]]
** The ironically named [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ohqEv1gEVoo "Hero"]], which reflects the views of [[JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope General James Ironwood]] as he swears to do anything in his power to protect his people and kingdom by any means necessary. However, after he decides that those means will require him to betray his allies, the song takes on new meaning.
** Ok Goodnight's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pwmSHhapmHA "Awake"]] is adapted into a theme for Cinder, reflecting her views as she kills her tormentors and betrays her mentor in search of identity.
** PlayedForLaughs with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQLQVWVM9_0 "That's a Big Ursa!"]], a tuned and remixed version of some of [[TheBully Russel Thrush's]] dialogue regarding a massive Grimm. It was featured exclusively on the Volume 1 DVD.
* ''WebAnimation/CampCamp'': The second season's opener has Daniel's half of "Better Than You," where Daniel finally drops his charismatic NiceGuy act and reveals the true depths of his evil, openly gloating to David about how he intends to poison and sacrifice the children of Camp Campbell whilst simultaneously sticking it to David about how he's so much greater than him, both as a person and a camp counselor.
* ''WebAnimation/DeathBattle'':
** "ComicBook/{{Ultron}} vs [[Characters/MegaManXSigma Sigma]]" has "[[https://youtu.be/_BEzZFdN83A Infection Perfection]]", with the singer proclaiming the superiority of machines while declaring victory over the other.
** "ComicBook/{{Darkseid}} vs ComicBook/{{Thanos}}" features a BoastfulRap called "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q0aDtTTHr9U Kings of Infinity]]", with the singer proclaiming how everything in their world is theirs to control as they see fit.
** "ComicBook/HarleyQuinn vs [[Characters/LeagueOfLegendsJinx Jinx]]" has "[[https://youtu.be/lTZZKtHF1sk Mad Laugh Riot]]", performed by Futakuchi Mana, about the character(s) proclaiming their insanity and inability to be reasoned with.
** "[[Characters/InvincibleTheGraysonFamily Omni-Man]] vs [[Characters/TheBoys Homelander]]" has "[[https://youtu.be/PsXRsa0EuWg Diabolical Invisible Me]]", where the singer boasts about their might and how their opponent will perish.
* ''WebAnimation/HazbinHotel'' has Alastor's DarkReprise of Charlie's earlier ''Inside Every Demon is a Rainbow'', where he uses her tune to sing about how sinners can't actually be redeemed and Charlie's endeavor is pointless.
** Once the show officially released in 2024, it got many other songs that could be contenders for this trope. Such as Adam's "[[https://youtu.be/kMy8W0j-Slw Hell is Forever]]" where the leader of the [[BloodKnights Exorcists]] mocks Charlie's idea, "[[https://youtu.be/Ai4eh_OCxvw Stayed Gone]]" is a QuarrelingSong between Vox and Alastor with the TV Demon trying, and failing, to outdo the latter, and "[[https://youtu.be/bOarXIWBtWk Respectless]]" is Velvette talking herself up while putting the rest of Hell's Overlord's down for their supposed cowardice.
* ''WebAnimation/OllieAndScoops'': In "Old Crumplecranks," the titular character sings a [[CreepyJazzMusic jazz number]] introducing himself to Poopsie and Rudy, with lyrics about how dangerous he is, and how he plans to kill the two cats.
* Parodied in ''WebAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeastPhelous''.
** Wabuu plays the role of Gaston from Disney's ''WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast'', so at one point some characters in the tavern attempt to sing the song "Gaston" but with Wabuu's name. Due to their grating voices and lack of musical accompaniment, it sounds terrible, and the "song" is over after just a few seconds. Wabuu is not pleased.
-->'''Wabuu:''' That was it? That song was soooo lame!
** A few minutes later, Wuschel is singing the song again, but Wabuu tells him it's too late now [[spoiler:and [[YouHaveFailedMe shoots him]].]]
-->'''Wabuu:''' It's too late to suck up through song now, Wuschel!
* [[VirtualYouTuber V-Tubers]]:
** Though not technically a villain, there's a few songs that fit in this category from Mori Calliope of ''WebAnimation/{{Hololive}}'', who assumes the role of [[TheGrimReaper Death herself]]. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5y3xh8gs24c Excuse My Rudeness, But Could You Please RIP]] is a BoastfulRap about how Calliope is the best in the business when it comes to [[NeverSayDie human erasure]]. In a similar fashion, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ydgEipkUEU DEAD BEATS]] is about how she'll effectively eliminate the enemies of her fans as perks for being buddy-buddy with her. Fortunately, [[NightmareRetardant the audience doesn't have to worry about a thing]], as Calli is actually a friendly Reaper, and is on hiatus for the most part.
*** On the "Your Mori" EP, she gives us [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b5GONDGSvX8 "Bully"]], which portrays the feelings of an abuser who doesn't understand why the person they care about still stays even after they continue to hurt them.
*** Calli returns to to the antagonistic portrayal of Death she started with in "[[https://youtu.be/SwOat0JYPAY Dead on Arrival"]], where she sings a bouncy {{Electro Swing}} song about how [[YouCantFightFate useless trying to fight the]] [[WeAllDieSomeday inevitability of death is]] [[TheChessmaster because she's puppeteering and scripting everything from the shadows anyways]]. She takes the role of a gambling "death dealer" who fixes every game and toys with those she's playing against, selling the souls she wins to the highest bidder. They don't call her the Queen of Sayonara for nothing.
*** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N9cflnJYZ9c NEZUMI Scheme]]" is this for Calli's AlternateUniverse SuperDeformed self, "Nezumori". This version of Calli is depicted as vain, selfish, and uncaring of her Dead Beats, using them in the video to cause a rampage all across the Underworld, and the song reflects this in its lyrics, demanding that they praise her like a god.
** Creator/AmandaLee's villainous V-Tuber persona, Multiverse Monarch, released an album in 2022, ''Rise of the Monarch'', which has the titular villainess telling her story over the course of the eight songs: the songs and accompanying music videos reveal that the Multiverse Monarch [[FallenHero was once a genuine hero until]] [[EtTuBrute she was betrayed by someone she trusted]] [[CardCarryingVillain and]] [[DrunkOnTheDarkSide now]] [[EvilFeelsGood relishes]] [[ThenLetMeBeEvil in her villainy]].
*** The aptly named song "Villain Vibes" features the aforementioned Mori Calliope.
** Holo X's Takane Lui gets a chance to shine in her song [[https://youtu.be/O0aSJdN3mVY "Overd"]], where she sings about her role as a leader in [[TheOmniscientCouncilOfVagueness Secret Society HoloX]] and their goal to TakeOverTheWorld.
* While he's really just a lackey to the BigBad, Geodude in ''WebAnimation/StarterSquad'' gets [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7XGHN5U3Voc "Rock Smasher"]], a heavy metal number he belts out while beating the crap out of VillainProtagonist Charmander.
* ''WebAnimation/TheSunsTear'': [[spoiler:Kaa gets one in the form of "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yIpqXXQ8RDM You'll Be Mine]]", a devious lullaby performed by Kaa as she finalizes her control over Sanaya's mind and gloats about it.]]
* ''WebAnimation/EpithetErased'' has a few:
** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vfKv2JpKNos Great at Crime]]," the first ending theme, is styled as one for Giovanni and his crew of {{Card Carrying Villain}}s. But given Giovanni's (poorly) HiddenHeartOfGold and his minions' collective [[MinionWithAnFInEvil F in Evil]], it comes off as an ''anti-''villain song about their [[StupidCrooks poorly executed]] PokeThePoodle antics.
** For the second ending, Zora turns the same melody into "[[https://youtu.be/nWvNpZdUszA Great at Cowboy]]," a chilling song about her status as a terrifying bounty hunter. "[[https://youtu.be/VxEwDx5oPO8 Countdown]]" follows up by describing the ways she's toyed with her previous marks.
** [[ConversationalTroping Discussed]] when Giovanni is explaining what he thinks makes a good villain in ''Literature/EpithetErasedPrisonOfPlastic'', where he makes sure to mention that as the bad guy, "you get the coolest song".
[[/folder]]
* PlayedForLaughs in ''[[WebAnimation/ASDFMovie asdfmovie12]]'', with a nameless potted flower joyfully singing as he strolls down a road... about how he's going to eat human skin.
* ''WebAnimation/HomestarRunner'':
** [[VillainProtagonist Strong Bad]] often opens his [[WebAnimation/StrongBadEmail email-answering series]] with a brief song, usually about [[ItsAllAboutMe how great he is]] and[=/=]or [[TakeThatAudience how not-great the people who email him are]].
** BreakoutCharacter [[NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast Trogdor the Burninator]] has a [[https://youtu.be/90X5NJleYJQ?t=152 kickass thrash metal theme song]] sung by Strong Bad which (attempts to) explain its backstory and detail how powerful it is. A longer and better-sounding version can be heard on the "Strong Bad Sings and Other Type Hits" CD mentioned below, or as an unlockable song in ''VideoGame/GuitarHero 2''.
** Strong Bad actually released an entire CD of songs sung by him (and other characters), but out of all the tracks only "You've Got an Ugly & Stupid BUTT", "The ladies in my town all know my name", "Somebody Told Me (Now I Believe Them)", and the aforementioned "Trogdor" really qualify as Villain Songs.
** On Trogdor's [[MilestoneCelebration fifth anniversary,]] Strong Bad made a song for his original attempt at drawing a dragon, The "S is for Sucks" Dragon. Despite being ''vastly'' different in tone, [[LyricalDissonance the song still mentions that the dragon kills people and is feared by everyone.]]
* ''WebAnimation/{{RWBY}}'':
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zTdLRu45sMY "When It Falls"]], the opening theme of Volume 3, is either from Cinder or Salem's perspective, and describes how the world will fall and innocents will perish in massive quantities. The singer goes on to blame the subject (likely Ozpin) for the death and destruction that will befall their people, and how division and disharmony will be rampant in this new {{Dystopia}}.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B5yY4aGqUsc "I'm the One"]] plays during Emerald and Mercury's tournament battle against Coco and Yatsuhashi. The song is sung from the perspective of Emerald and Mercury, talking about how their pasts have placed their combat and Semblance abilities far above those of their opponents. Some of the smack-talking and boasting in the song coincide with dialogue and actions that occur during the fight. Coco and Yatsuhashi, who are considered some of Beacon Academy's star fighters, are completely curb-stomped by the villainous duo, confirming how dangerous Emerald and Mercury are to student-level fighters.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zDXgbdhj5Zc "Divide"]] first plays during the ending of the Volume 3 finale, which introduces the BigBad, Salem. During the show's pilot episode and the final episode of Volume 3, Salem gives a long speech about the origin of legends and humanity, and how [[BigGood Ozpin's]] correct to consider humanity stronger when it unites. She boasts of her plan to divide humanity and destroy everything that Ozpin has worked for, concluding that she can't wait to watch him burn. The song "Divide" takes its lyrics from Salem's two speeches, also ending with the desire to watch him burn. From Volume 4, certain refrains from the song [[{{Leitmotif}} play in the background]] whenever she is on screen and scheming.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TY-aMggjF-s "Lionize"]] is introduced during the Volume 6 Character Short which details how Adam became a villain. The song is a self-aggrandizing boast about how a lifetime of torture and abuse at the hands of humanity creates a hero that will become immortalized as a legend for crushing and subjugating humanity. The Short is about how the [[LittleBitBeastly Faunus]] elevate Adam in power and status for being the hero they've been yearning for, to fight humanity for their rights. However, the Short also ends with Adam losing everything because ego, selfishness and obsession leads to everyone who once had faith in him turning on him for becoming a monster.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BzYAKDUaR18 "All Things Must Die"]] plays during the fight between Raven Branwen and Cinder Fall in the Vault of the Spring Maiden. Reflecting the views of both villains, the lyrics reflect the battle as they explain that all things come to an end, and that the others' life is about to be ended. As the song progresses, they urge the other to give up and surrender to death.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGQ_xx1mIoU "One Thing"]] plays when Neo returns to the screen in Volume 6, explaining why she's decided to fight Cinder. It hints at her past, suggesting that she was alone and without purpose until Roman Torchwick changed her life and gave her a name. [[spoiler:She blames Cinder for what happened to Roman and that she's fallen onto hard times once more since his death. The Neo that fights Cinder is wearing tattered clothing and Roman's hat, and Cinder has to directly address the death of Roman to end the fight.]]
** The ironically named [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ohqEv1gEVoo "Hero"]], which reflects the views of [[JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope General James Ironwood]] as he swears to do anything in his power to protect his people and kingdom by any means necessary. However, after he decides that those means will require him to betray his allies, the song takes on new meaning.
** Ok Goodnight's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pwmSHhapmHA "Awake"]] is adapted into a theme for Cinder, reflecting her views as she kills her tormentors and betrays her mentor in search of identity.
** PlayedForLaughs with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQLQVWVM9_0 "That's a Big Ursa!"]], a tuned and remixed version of some of [[TheBully Russel Thrush's]] dialogue regarding a massive Grimm. It was featured exclusively on the Volume 1 DVD.
* ''WebAnimation/CampCamp'': The second season's opener has Daniel's half of "Better Than You," where Daniel finally drops his charismatic NiceGuy act and reveals the true depths of his evil, openly gloating to David about how he intends to poison and sacrifice the children of Camp Campbell whilst simultaneously sticking it to David about how he's so much greater than him, both as a person and a camp counselor.
* ''WebAnimation/DeathBattle'':
** "ComicBook/{{Ultron}} vs [[Characters/MegaManXSigma Sigma]]" has "[[https://youtu.be/_BEzZFdN83A Infection Perfection]]", with the singer proclaiming the superiority of machines while declaring victory over the other.
** "ComicBook/{{Darkseid}} vs ComicBook/{{Thanos}}" features a BoastfulRap called "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q0aDtTTHr9U Kings of Infinity]]", with the singer proclaiming how everything in their world is theirs to control as they see fit.
** "ComicBook/HarleyQuinn vs [[Characters/LeagueOfLegendsJinx Jinx]]" has "[[https://youtu.be/lTZZKtHF1sk Mad Laugh Riot]]", performed by Futakuchi Mana, about the character(s) proclaiming their insanity and inability to be reasoned with.
** "[[Characters/InvincibleTheGraysonFamily Omni-Man]] vs [[Characters/TheBoys Homelander]]" has "[[https://youtu.be/PsXRsa0EuWg Diabolical Invisible Me]]", where the singer boasts about their might and how their opponent will perish.
* ''WebAnimation/HazbinHotel'' has Alastor's DarkReprise of Charlie's earlier ''Inside Every Demon is a Rainbow'', where he uses her tune to sing about how sinners can't actually be redeemed and Charlie's endeavor is pointless.
** Once the show officially released in 2024, it got many other songs that could be contenders for this trope. Such as Adam's "[[https://youtu.be/kMy8W0j-Slw Hell is Forever]]" where the leader of the [[BloodKnights Exorcists]] mocks Charlie's idea, "[[https://youtu.be/Ai4eh_OCxvw Stayed Gone]]" is a QuarrelingSong between Vox and Alastor with the TV Demon trying, and failing, to outdo the latter, and "[[https://youtu.be/bOarXIWBtWk Respectless]]" is Velvette talking herself up while putting the rest of Hell's Overlord's down for their supposed cowardice.
* ''WebAnimation/OllieAndScoops'': In "Old Crumplecranks," the titular character sings a [[CreepyJazzMusic jazz number]] introducing himself to Poopsie and Rudy, with lyrics about how dangerous he is, and how he plans to kill the two cats.
* Parodied in ''WebAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeastPhelous''.
** Wabuu plays the role of Gaston from Disney's ''WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast'', so at one point some characters in the tavern attempt to sing the song "Gaston" but with Wabuu's name. Due to their grating voices and lack of musical accompaniment, it sounds terrible, and the "song" is over after just a few seconds. Wabuu is not pleased.
-->'''Wabuu:''' That was it? That song was soooo lame!
** A few minutes later, Wuschel is singing the song again, but Wabuu tells him it's too late now [[spoiler:and [[YouHaveFailedMe shoots him]].]]
-->'''Wabuu:''' It's too late to suck up through song now, Wuschel!
* [[VirtualYouTuber V-Tubers]]:
** Though not technically a villain, there's a few songs that fit in this category from Mori Calliope of ''WebAnimation/{{Hololive}}'', who assumes the role of [[TheGrimReaper Death herself]]. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5y3xh8gs24c Excuse My Rudeness, But Could You Please RIP]] is a BoastfulRap about how Calliope is the best in the business when it comes to [[NeverSayDie human erasure]]. In a similar fashion, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ydgEipkUEU DEAD BEATS]] is about how she'll effectively eliminate the enemies of her fans as perks for being buddy-buddy with her. Fortunately, [[NightmareRetardant the audience doesn't have to worry about a thing]], as Calli is actually a friendly Reaper, and is on hiatus for the most part.
*** On the "Your Mori" EP, she gives us [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b5GONDGSvX8 "Bully"]], which portrays the feelings of an abuser who doesn't understand why the person they care about still stays even after they continue to hurt them.
*** Calli returns to to the antagonistic portrayal of Death she started with in "[[https://youtu.be/SwOat0JYPAY Dead on Arrival"]], where she sings a bouncy {{Electro Swing}} song about how [[YouCantFightFate useless trying to fight the]] [[WeAllDieSomeday inevitability of death is]] [[TheChessmaster because she's puppeteering and scripting everything from the shadows anyways]]. She takes the role of a gambling "death dealer" who fixes every game and toys with those she's playing against, selling the souls she wins to the highest bidder. They don't call her the Queen of Sayonara for nothing.
*** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N9cflnJYZ9c NEZUMI Scheme]]" is this for Calli's AlternateUniverse SuperDeformed self, "Nezumori". This version of Calli is depicted as vain, selfish, and uncaring of her Dead Beats, using them in the video to cause a rampage all across the Underworld, and the song reflects this in its lyrics, demanding that they praise her like a god.

Which is to say, great for her, as she is also ruining the lives of everyone else.

* The ''Franchise/StarTrek'' novel ''Literature/HowMuchForJustThePlanet'', being a rather... ''different''... ''Trek'' [[RuleOfFunny story]], features "My Own Sweet Tyrannical Way", sung by [[GodSaveUsFromTheQueen Queen Janeka]]. Having captured Sulu, [=McCoy=], and a pair of [[FriendlyEnemy Klingons]], she launches into a high-kicking musical number about [[PunchClockVillain what a pain in the ass is it to be a barbarian queen in these crazy modern times]]... her litany of complaints include an uncomfortable ChainmailBikini, dodging KlingonPromotion attempts, keeping a rowdy barbarian horde under control, and [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking paying the heating bill for the ]] [[ElaborateUndergroundBase Underground Lair]]. Though in the end, she concludes it's totally WorthIt, since the [[ForTheEvulz Evulz are too much fun to give up]].
* The closest thing to one in the ''Literature/LeftBehind'' books is Nicolae Carpathia's self-indulgent national anthem "Hail Carpathia", which gets twisted by Buck Williams into TheVillainSucksSong "Fail Carpathia".
* ''Literature/ASongOfIceAndFire'': "And who are you, the proud lord said, that I must bow so low..." You know [[MagnificentBastard Lord Tywin Lannister]] is badass when, in [[CrapsackWorld Westeros]] of all places, he has his own theme tune, The Rains of Castamere. It is about how, while still a young man, he wiped out Houses Reyne and Tarbeck for rebelling against the Lannisters. When it was played to another rebellious Lord they reconsidered their position. Later it is used as the signal for [[spoiler:[[NastyParty the Red Wedding]], when enemies of the Lannisters and thousands of their troops are massacred.]]
* "The Robber's Song" from the Norwegian children's book (and later play) ''When the Robbers came to Cardamum Town'' by Thorbjørn Egner is the three titular, not very villainous, robbers, Kasper, Jesper and Jonatan, singing about their nightly exploits. Due to the popularity of the book and the clever lyrics, the song is known by pretty much everyone in Norway, Denmark and Sweden:
--> We sneak around on tip-toed feet
--> when we are going robbing.
--> We only rob whate'er we need,
--> it's our way of shopping.
--> Now darkness lies across the land
--> the town is sleeping to a man,
--> and we're going robbing with bags in our hands,
--> we are Kasper and Jesper and Jonatan.
* Some of the ''Literature/CaptainFuture'' books have a few lines from the SpacePirates' anthem:
-->From Mercury to Pluto, \\
From Saturn back to Mars, \\
We'll fight and sail and blaze our trail \\
In crimson through the stars! \\
We'll cram our holds with plunder \\
From every world and moon...

* Wrestling/{{WWE}} wrestler Wrestling/TripleH's entrance theme, "The Game", is largely a VillainSong, sung by Motörhead from Triple H's point-of-view. It's three-and-a-half minutes of gloating about how Trips is the baddest of the bad and controls the WWE with an iron fist. Lemmy even throws in an EvilLaugh or two along the way.
* Ricky Banderas's theme: "It doesn't matter if you're black or white. It doesn't matter if you're rich or poor, because I am, the big brother. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XYTnvg7PGhA And I'm watching you.]]"

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WWmH_-RxPMk Randy Orton's voices theme]] is an awesome VillainSong.
* Wrestling/TheUndertaker's theme - BONG. *cue the druids, ominous Latin chanting, and one hell of a creepy EvilLaugh* Though the Music/LimpBizkit theme is about the only one with lyrics.
** His theme during the Ministry gimmick mixes his original theme with hard rock.
* Wrestling/ShawnMichaels's theme, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qsvzIyBRElA "Sexy Boy"]], though it was originally a VillainLoveSong, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lgtOvcZ9Qo8 sung by "Sensational" Sheri Martel]].

* A subversion: "Stand Back" was sung by Vince [=McMahon=] with the original intention to be used as Wrestling/AndreTheGiant's song (and was actually used as such [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XMFm73OiGqI for a promo video]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AwPVFp5ho6U in the NES Wrestlemania game]]), but wound up being used for [=McMahon=] himself, who wasn't actually a villain at the time. (His on-screen persona was a {{face}}-biased announcer, nothing more) That changed a few years later when he got a new persona and a new theme:
* [[CorruptCorporateExecutive "'Cause you've got.... NO CHANCE!"]] To quote [[Creator/TheSportsGuy Bill Simmons]]:
-->''I'd want to come out to Vince [=McMahon=]'s "No Chance" song, just so I could perform the "I have complete and utter disdain for everyone in this building, and that's why I'm walking with an exaggerated swagger and frowning" routine while 20,000 people lustily boo me. That seems like more fun than humans should be allowed.''
** Taken to the next level when the Corporate Ministry was revealed, bizarrely combining [=McMahon=]'s Corporation with the Undertaker's Ministry, and likewise combining the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uuH4DwVnYJI Ministry theme]] with the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Uc3V8NxKWw original "No Chance In Hell"]], forming "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ZZLwl6zZSI No Chance In Hell (Corporate Ministry)]]".
* As much of a douche as Wrestling/TheMiz is...his song fits the trope.
** "I came to PLAY! There's a price to pay, time for you to get down on your knees and pray. Say GOODBYE to the good ole days, they're never coming back, watch your future fade.
*** His ''Wrestling/WrestleMania 27'' promo song, "Hate Me Now", is even better. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6DkCx2es3pc Here it is]], with Miz's TitanTron.
* In the early 90s The Texas Hangmen had a pretty awesome one to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gX2enodtI2Q introduce them to the USWA]] it helped establish how AxCrazy they were.
** "CLOTHESLINE will break your neck! The match is over and your body's a wreck. POWERSLAM will put you out! Havok and mayhem is what we're about!"
* Wrestling/DrewMcIntyre's star may have faded, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8c_QlGODXf8 but his longest-lasting theme]], "Broken Dreams" by Shaman's Harvest, fits to the T.
-->''What's that metronome I hear?\\
Perhaps the end...is drawing near?\\
You never hear the shot, that takes you down.''
-->''Out of time...so say goodbye.\\
What is yours....now is mine.\\
And I DREAM BROKEN DREAMS!\\
I make them come true...\\
I make them for youuuu.''
* [[Wrestling/HonkyTonkMan The Honky Tonk Man]]: His 50s-styled themed entrance song, a cheerfully narcissistic self-titled ode to himself: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wUAmfJlgh9s He's cool, he's cocky, he's b-b-b-b-b-b-b-baaaaaaad.]] %% Despite the title on the video, the song is unquestionably called "Honky-Tonk Man", as seen on [[https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/510Ow1Q5szL.jpg the album cover]]. Please don't change it to "Cool Cocky Bad".
* The Mountie: Wrestling/JacquesRougeau's heel marching tune, "The Mountie." When Rougeau began teaming with Pierre Oulette as part of The Quebecers, the tune was changed to "We're Not the Mounties" but – aside from minor lyrical differences and the vocal track replaced with a duet – kept pretty much intact.
* Rougeau's previous entrance song as part of the Fabulous Rougeau Brothers was [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f8oYbBIfifc "All-American Boys"]], where the brothers sang a mock-{{Face}} song that subtly insulted the audience in English (by claiming to only like "All-American" things like Music/BarryManilow and hating rock music) and ''directly'' insulted them in French.
-->"On peut pas les sentir, dans le monde ils sont les pires! On aime les faire facher quand qu'on dit[[labelnote: translation]] We can't stand them, they are the worst in the world. We like to anger them when we say [[/labelnote]]'We love the USA'!"
* Wrestling/MadisonRayne [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GsEK4Aau-rc may have the most clear-cut one]] in Wrestling/{{TNA}}:
-->''She'll break your heart\\
Tear it apart\\
Just to watch you scream\\
She'll never look back, you better come back\\
To kill your will and your dreams\\
She's a killer queen...''
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_G4ocC6ILfY He'll steal your girl, break your heart and leave you a fool. He's simply ravishing. The Dazzling Ravishing]] [[Wrestling/RickRude Rude!]]
* Combine an ominous bassline, an eerily distorted guitar, a dark piano melody, and haunting vocals and you have ''Live In Fear''[=/=]''Broken Out in Love'', the perfectly sinister track that accompanies Wrestling/TheWyattFamily in their promos and entrance.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ZD3FAUqJEg God made the devil just for fun...]] when he wanted the real thing he made Wrestling/AjaKong.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3fiTIBG6U1g And when your god's gone, you can believe this...]] I'm [[Wrestling/KevinOwens Kevin Steen]], and fuck Wrestling/RingOfHonor!
* Wrestling/KurtAngle's called on Sensational Wrestling/SherriMartel to help him sing his own version of Wrestling/ShawnMichaels's theme song, called "Sexy Kurt" (he'll make your ankle hurt)
* [[Wrestling/KatarinaWaters Winter]]'s TNA theme was titled "The Hands of the Wicked", in case there was any doubt left.
* Wrestling/{{Tazz}} was in the process of writing one for Wrestling/IvelisseVelez but Wrestling/{{Aces And Eights|Wrestlers}} losing the TNA World Cup ensured she wouldn't be sticking around long enough for him to finish.
* Wrestling/AJStyles's Wrestling/BulletClub theme in Wrestling/{{New Japan|ProWrestling}}. Fuck your dreams, fuck your life! Especially when compared to his ROH theme, "Demigods".
* In Wrestling/ProgressWrestling, Wrestling/JimmyHavoc uses "I Hope You Suffer" by AFI as entrance music, and it fits his entire character so well that it might as well have been made for him.
* Arguably, [[Wrestling/EdgeWrestler Metalingus]] counts, as it was used to accommodate a heel turn, and with Edge using it, the lyrics come off as AmbitionIsEvil. This becomes [[ToBeaMaster subverted]] as Edge mostly uses this as a face.
** Made even more evil in March 2022 with The Other Side, also by the same band that did Metalingus: Music/AlterBridge. The lyrics also befit Edge in some way:
--->''If you believe yours is the only way\\
Then you're the fool who lives to die\\
Well you deserve the Hell, you're gonna pay\\
On the other side\\
Once you reach the other side\\
There will be no paradise...''
* Wrestling/BaronCorbin's "I Bring the Darkness (End of Days)", also counts. The lyrics even describe his gimmick.
-->''I bring the darkness, I am the thunder\\
I come from Hell, and I'll pull you under\\
I'll make you feel the wrath of my ways\\
I'll make it real, I'll bring you end of days...''

* Joker actually sings one (although we can only read the lyrics) in ''ComicBook/TheKillingJoke''. Best argument ever for actually animating ''ComicBook/TheKillingJoke''.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KOb4fOGQHCE Joker's song from "The Killing Joke"]] covered as a [[SanitySlippageSong cold lament of madness]].

* In ''ComicBook/LeagueOfExtraordinaryGentlemen: Century: 1969'', Terner, the would-be HumanoidAbomination, sings a version of Music/{{The Rolling Stones|Band}}' "Sympathy for the Devil" as he prepares to be possessed by Oliver Haddo.
* The MusicalEpisode of ''Webcomic/{{Nodwick}}'' has [[BlackKnight Utharr]]'s lyric-changed version of [[Music/{{Metallica}} "Enter Sandman"]], followed by the entire bad trio's version of [[Music/{{Queen}} "We are the Champions"]].
* Matthew Patel from ''ComicBook/ScottPilgrim'' has the honor of singing his own song called "Slick", complete with fireballs and demon hipster chicks.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p5vhFhOLCQU "Carnage Rules"]], by Green Jelly. Don't need to tell you [[ComicBook/SpiderMan who this is about]].
* [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros Bowser]] sings one in Magazine/NintendoPower's ''ComicBook/SuperMarioAdventures'' comic.
* ''ComicBook/VForVendetta'' has "This Vicious Cabaret", in which the antihero V sings about how he's manipulating the other characters.

* The Goblins' songs in ''Literature/TheHobbit''.
* Shows up a lot in ''Literature/{{Redwall}}''. ''Triss'' has three ("That's The Freebootin' Way", "'[[CardCarryingVillain Tis Nice To Be A Villain]]" and "Plunder, By Thunder").
** In ''Rakkety Tam'', the villains sing a let's-get-frenzied song, which the audio book sets to a heavy beat and bass guitar.
** In ''Marlfox''. "Who be death? We be death! Dis de blade wot stop your breath!"
** There are [[AffablyEvil Flinky's]] many songs in ''Loamhedge''. All of them are great, but the darkest is the "[[IronicNurseryTune Vermin Lullaby]]", which was a normal lullaby at first, before it suddenly got DarkerAndEdgier in the second chorus.

The Villain Song [[EvilIsHammy is an over-the-top]], [[EvilGloating gloating]] [[EvilLaugh cackle]] about their EvilPlan, philosophy of life, or why they do what they do [[IncrediblyLamePun (their leitmotive?)]]. Said philosophy is usually that [[TakeOverTheWorld the world is there for the taking]], or that the world has wronged them and they will take {{revenge}}, or that they [[ForTheEvulz just like hurting people]] and [[NothingCanStopUsNow nobody is going to stop them]]. The villain usually gets lots of eye candy to go with their song -- live performers will dance up a storm, while animated villains will get pyrotechnics all around them. If they don't get huge visuals, it better ''damn'' well be because the song itself steals the show, and trying to distract from that with a lot of flashy visuals is just ''asking'' for [[Franchise/{{ThePhantomOfTheOpera}} a chandelier to fall on someone.]] This song is usually delivered in a minor [[{{Scales}} key]] and typically features dramatic evidence of the villain's evil nature, such as playful abuse of loyal minions, taunting of prisoners, or random destruction of incidental locations of the villain's secret lair, usually for the purpose of abusing minions or taunting prisoners.
