[Verse 1]
Oh
M. Bison came to town
Not a frown
No longer bound
His boots so shiny
Cape so red
But now he smiles
No fear
No dread

[Chorus]
The gentle dictator in New York City
Oh
He’s kind
And his laugh’s so pretty
Holding hands
He skips along
Singing the children a brand-new song

[Verse 2]
Once he thundered
Fists would fly
Now he points at kites in the sky
The pigeons perch upon his hat
“Look at that!” he laughs with a chat

[Chorus]
The gentle dictator in New York City
Oh
He’s kind
And his laugh’s so pretty
Sharing pretzels
Feeding ducks
With a wink and a smile
He’s in no rush

[Bridge]
Once feared in battles
His power so grand
Now he builds castles in the sand
No Psycho Crushers
No glowing might
Just a friend to all in the park tonight

[Chorus]
The gentle dictator in New York City
Oh
He’s kind
And his laugh’s so pretty
Walking the streets
His heart so light
New York children cheer
"You're just right!"
