While The Arcadion is mostly instrumental (reversed for It's Showtime!), the themes its referencing are not. I thought I would find and write out these lyrics for my curiosity's sake and hopefully that of others.
0:00 It's Showtime!
There ain't no going back ...
Tonight, lightning'll strike, thunder will fall (and) You're gonna give it all To
This is closer to Give It All's lyrics and style but to the tune of It's Showtime! at 0:10, before when Give it All's tune normally starts in it. The additional words sound like 'again this time' to me. Another clue it's It's Showtime! is that the line 'no going back' is followed by the line 'Tonight'. While this version of 'no going back' is different, the crowd chants these two lines back to back at 1:25 in It's Showtime!, and these lines are far apart in Give It All. The second line has different lyrics to Give it all.
0:23 Burning Souls/Not Afraid
Tonight is the night Tonight is the night
A blood moon is rising Put all this behind us
One spire left to climb Won't run from the fight
My pride's on the line, yeah I'm not 'fraid of dying
The following lines from the 2nd version (Not afraid! Not afraid! // No, I'm not afraid!! NO!) line up neatly with the start of the Unleashed section.
0:35 Unleashed/Peerless
Bear my claws, bear my fangs
My heart's racing, it's the thrill of the fight
As a run, and I howl, at the moon (I know)
I've the strength to defeat any foe I see (Overlapping and more instrumental than lyrical and +1 syllable makes this closer to the instrumental version in Peerless)
0:47 Ride the Rhythm
Get down, turn it up
Take it off, have some fun
Break out, try your luck
Don't stop 'til the morning comes
Rough-house, stand your ground
Fisticuffs, get your fix
Showdown, final round
Free-for-all, this is it!
0:58 It's Showtime!/Unleashed
In my thirst for battle, there I see it, sets my heart to racing
In my thirst for battle, there I feel it, sets my soul to blazing
Repeats under Bee my Honey
In my thirst for battle, there I see it, sets my heart to racing
In my thirst for battle, there I feel it, sets my soul to blazing
It's Showtime! doesn't have lyrics so insert the first crowd chanting here (no claps or stomps)
1:10 Bee My Honey
I'll be your queen bee Honey B. Lovely
I'll be your one and only champion
I'll be your full time royal (worship me)
Love me again
Until the end
1:22 Back to the Drawing Board
Ring-a-roses
Palette full of pain and poison
On your toes, yeah
Keepin' you guessin'. What?
Ring-a-roses
Heart is skippin', mind is trippin'
This tune is all over Sugar Riot's theme, even where its not the lyrics follow the same cadence. This is the best match.
1:34 Sinister
I'm Sinister, under your skin, in lace and leather
Sinister, don't you know who I am? I'll make it better
1:46 The Mirror
The side of me that I wanna be
Riding free, extreme
Oh baby can't you see
Cut the leash so I can breathe
And now in me I can believe
2:10 The Tyrant
Hear the people clamor, calling my name
Chattel so enamored, blind to their pain
Every hope they harbour, mine to obtain
As the liege, now make way
Honor won by glory, blood in the sand
Strength, the only justice, worthy of man
Try to overcome me, but in the end
You will kneel, I will stand (This last line is a bit funkier)
2:34 Give It All
There ain't no going back
No going back
No going back
No
What's light's left here inside
I'll suffocate
If that's what it takes, oh
And those who look to cast me aside
or turn their backs and leave me to die
I've made up my mind, now my heart's demanding
I'm ready to fight til there's one left standing
Tonight, lightning'll strike, thunder will fall (and) You're gonna give it all (More instrumental than lyrical and sounds closer to the previous two lines)
Notes:
Where there are multiple lyrics to the same tune I have presented both side by side.
There are multiple layers here as some songs (It's Showtime!, Burning Souls, A Risky Bet, Peerless) are instrumental versions of others (Give it All, A Risky Bet, Not Afraid, Unleashed). I've commented where I've noticed this and attempted to discern the "validity" of whether the motif is lyrical or not.
I have attempted to discern exactly which version of a song each line is, or if it is new or all of them.
Improvements welcome.
