A Story Told (The Siblings )

So this is Lief, Cora and Viva singing a story told. Kyoya is put in jail for a crime and the three siblings meet in a place where they begin to talk about other plans. And they all want different things that Kyoya has. Cora wants Kyoya's girl, Lief wants his job, and Viva just wants to keep her reputation where it is while Kyoya knows a dark secret she has hidden. The three scheme to take all three of these things from Kyoya and let him rot in his prison while the three take away everything he has. Cora plays as Mondego, Lief plays as Danglars, and Viva plays as Villefort. So the plot continues on with these three singing their plot song. Note that the video I found is mlp version but has the orginal voices.

Cora:
(sitting at a table with her other two siblings) We are friends, are we not?

Lief:
And our interests are the same

Viva:
We collaborate

Lief:
And trust in fate
Parcel out the blame

Cora:
(pulls the other two close) There are ends we've all got that can justify the means

Lief:
(cleaning his gun) We negotiate

Viva:
(writing something down on paper) Then fabricate the facts behind the scenes

Cora:
(takes the paper and throws it in a fire) Keeping all the details vague and secrets hidden

Lief:
Safe from the balanced sheet of those you trust
Because history is a story told by the winners of the fight
You imply a little

Cora:
Lie a little
Testifying

Viva:
Try a little

Cora and Viva:
Sailor

Cora:
Who's gonna question what goes on in the middle of the night?
Not a tinker

Lief:
Not a tailor

Cora:
Not his father or his girlfriend

Viva:
Or a jailer (giggles alittle)

Cora:
So we all are agreed
Let's be vigilant and wise

Lief:
We must all pretend our naïve friend was caught in his own lies
For our plan to succeed
we must share but one belief
(traps a ant in a cup) Kyoya stays and ends his days inside the Chateau d'If

Cora:
Where the softest things he'll touch are stones and darkness
Deep in a craggy isle and dungeon's keep

Viva:
Because history's a story told by the men who make the laws

Lief:
We supply a little lie

Cora:
To help the gullible to buy a little fable

Viva:
What will become of the righteous men who fashioned Kyoya's flaws?

Cora:
The rich

Lief:
And well respected

Viva:
Are no more to be rejected at our table

Cora:
I'll be a comfort in her time of grief and anguish
I'll be Maka's ever faithful acolyte
Every night

Viva:
And part of me wishes Kyoya didn't have to languish

Cora:
But I can see it's him or me!

Lief:
Let him sit there and rot until he's forgot!

Cora:
Let him rot!

THREE TOGETHER:
History's a story told by the people who survive

Viva:
Let me sign and then initial

Lief:
It's the truth if it's officially the story

Cora:
What if the cost is one young man so three siblings can survive?

Viva:
He's a price we have to pay

Cora:
So live and fight another day for love and glory

Lief:
He was standing in the way
A threat to justice in Marseille

Viva:
So goes the story!

Cora:
Stick to the story!

THREE TOGETHER:
Here ends the story!
