LYRICS:

May I introduce you to
The world's most decorated zoo,
For everything you wish was make-believe.
Oh, buddy did you know,
You could shake hands with a demon,
If you wanna take that dare, so be it.
You could lose an arm or a leg so easy here.

So let me give you a scenario,
And don't you tell a soul,
It's only hypothetical.

Imagine all your nightmares
Contained in a single glorified reformatory,
Where nothing ever gets out.
Straitjackets have been worn out.

Good guys, bad guys accomodated,
If it don't make any sense, like it's something in a story.
We'll make sure it stays fiction,
In our superstitious foundation.

Medicine unlike any other,
Coffee machine dispensing blood for a sucker.
All that we display will never leave.
But buddy, don't you know
We don't wanna let armageddon,
Rear its ugly head like a nuclear weapon.
We secure, contain, protect,
So you don't live in fear.

Did I even mention
The monsters that preside?
Where do I begin? Where do I begin?
Cuz there is more than 99.

The Vermin God, The Anklebiters,
Brother's Bride, Shy Guy, Trapped in the Typewriter.
Snapper of Necks, On A Perfect Day,
Polaroid, Builder Bear, Hungry Clay,
Water Orb, River Cat, Draws You In the Book,
Whistlebones, Abandoned Row Home,
There Was a Crooked Man, Man's Best Friend,
Hateful Star, Desert in a Can.

And that isn't even half of it.

So let me give you a scenario,
And don't you tell a soul,
It's only hypothetical.
Let me give you a scenario,
But don't you go thinking it's real.

Imagine all your nightmares
Contained in a single glorified reformatory,
Where nothing ever gets out.
Straitjackets have been worn out.

Good guys, bad guys accomodated,
If it don't make any sense, like it's something in a story.
We'll make sure it stays fiction,
In our superstitious foundation.

Superstitious foundation,
Superstitious foundation.

Pleasure doing business with you. It came out great!

If anyone's curious:
*-The Vermin God - SCP-027:* An anomaly that affects one person at a time. Causes them to be swarmed with vermin. Transfers to the nearest person following the host's death.
*-The Anklebiters - SCP-625:* Anomalous rodents that anesthetize and cut the meat off of human ankles. They have enhanced strength, speed and durability, and they have razor sharp claws.
*-Brother's Bride - SCP-032:* A somewhat autonomous silicone/polymer simulacrum of a woman completely filled with oil on the inside. Anomalously cuases severe damage to any object in its vicinity that is entirely unrelated to humanity such as undomesticated flora and fauna.
*-Shy Guy - SCP-096:* A tall, gaunt, and pale humanoid with unnaturally long arms. Kills and presumably consumes anything that views its face. This effect applies to photographs, but not drawings.
*-Trapped in a Typewriter - SCP-256:* A typewriter of unusual build that generates an electrical charge. Numerous people have been affected by a possibly anomalous effect and claim that a woman named Elizabeth Waters is trapped within it.
*-Snapper of Necks (The Sculpture) - SCP-173:* A hostile concrete and rebar statue that moves when unobserved. Kills by snapping necks.
*-A Perfect Day - SCP-849:* A sensory deprivation chamber filled with an opaque grey liquid. Touching the liquid transports the subject to a place resembling what they consider to be their home. The subject experiences 24 hours of a day where everything goes well and quarrels with others are resolved. During the last few hours, the world they are in degrades.
*-Polaroid (Desire Camera) - SCP-978:* A Polaroid camera that photographs what someone would rather be doing.
*-Builder Bear - SCP-1048:* A living teddy bear that builds hostile copies of itself from unusual sources. 3 copies were made of severed ears, an aborted child, and scrap metal respectively.
*-Hungry Clay - SCP-357:* A chemically anomalous malleable substance similar to play-doh that absorbs matter that is fully engulfed by it.
*-Water Orb - SCP-791:* A mass of water that stays in a sphere. Acts like a solid ball to nonbiological matter and water to biological matter. Occasionally expels oceanic items such as fish.
*-River Cat - SCP-796:* A hallucinatory, large, dark feline. Affected subjects die of a seemingly unrelated event within one month.
*-Draws You in a Book - SCP-826:* A pair of book ends that, when a book is placed within them, transform the room into the setting of said book.
*-Whistlebones - SCP-774:* A chemical that goes through skin and dissolves all bones except the skull. The skull then grows numerous protrusions, killing the victim. Affected skulls cause a whistle sound when breathing.
*-An Abandoned Row Home - SCP-083:* A two story house that appears pristine when entered from the door and dilapidated when entered through the windows.
*-There Was a Crooked Man - SCP-783:* A hostile entity in an English town that causes degradation of structures and crooked and stretched deformities on its victims. The entity appears to reside in a parallel world accessible via a mass grave of deformed corpses.
*-Man's Best Friend - SCP-916:* A long lived golden retriever that causes a cessation pain when lying near a subject. The subject will soon hear voices encouraging them to commit suicide. Voices claim to have been helped by SCP-916 in the past.
*-Hateful Star - Formerly SCP-1548, Now SCP-1548-EX and RPC-548:* A sentient pulsar in the crab nebula heading towards Earth. It pulses threats and insults in Morse Code when observed.
*As an aside, more people than I can count have been saying this is the SCP-001 proposal When Day Breaks. I don't think this is the case. SCP-1548, before being moved to the RPC Authority, was literally titled "The Hateful Star, " whereas the only connection to When Day Breaks is that both are stars; it just isn't enough when compared to the more obvious choice. I hope this clears everything up.
*-Desert in a Can - SCP-622:* A brand of sprayable chemical that causes dehydration by absorbing all available moisture on a body and in the air.
*Most of the ones I just listed were named directly by their official titles. For the couple that weren't, I included the lyrics referring to them as well as their official titles

I decided to add some of the other SCPs that I can see in the video:
0:40 "You can shake hands with a demon" likely refers to *SCP-738 ‐ The Devil's Deal* - An entity implied to be a demon inhabiting a chair, a large throne-ish chair, and a desk. The entity can make rather anomalous deals in exchange for an anomalous price that normally causes physical or emotional pain.
0:41 This is an unusual room, and something appears to be moving left to right in the water, but I don't know if it actually is an SCP. Mine and another commenter's best guess was *SCP-682 - Hard to Destroy Reptile* - A large reptilian monster with rapid regeneration and the ability to rapidly evolve against any anomalous effect that threatens to kill it. This guess comes from the fact that 682 is normally contained in a pool of acid.
0:47 *SCP-079 - The Old AI* - An Exidy Sorcerer Microcomputer with a sentient artificial intelligence programmed onto it. The ai has a collective roughly 24 hours of memory and it is rather limited.
0:52 *SCP-035 - The Possessive Mask* - A sentient theater mask that compels others to wear it and secretes a black caustic liquid. Whoever wears it is rendered braindead, and the mask takes control of their quickly mummifying body. The mask is rather sadistic and highly manipulative.
1:04 "Sttaitjackets have been worn out" Possible reference to a straitjacket SCP. The most prominent being *SCP-482 - Mentally Mutating Straitjacket* - When initially worn, a subject's mental afflictions are completely negated. After some time, they physically mutate on a manner based on their mental affliction. For example, one who heard voices in his head grew mouths across his body that began to speak independently.
1:21 The lyrics "medicine unlike any other" may refer to *SCP-500 - Panacea* - A batch of red pills capable of curing any disease.
1:21 "Coffee Machine Dispensing Blood for a Sucker" might refer to *SCP-294 - The Coffee Machine* - A coffee vending machine with an attached keyboard. Inserting 50 cents will allow you to type any liquid, which will be dispensed in a cup unaffected by damage due to said liquid. One staff member typed 'cup of joe, ' causing the machine to dispense blood and other bodily fluids that were syphoned from him since his name was Joseph.
1:34 *SCP-049 - Plague Doctor* - A plague doctor whose touch can cause instant death. It is capable of performing surgery to cause these victims to resurrect as mindlessly violent zombies. It is intent on curing the "pestilence, " an ailment it has yet to properly explain.
1:35 *SCP-106 - The Old Man* - A decomposed elderly humanoid covered in a highly caustic black mucus. It can walk on walls and ceilings, enter a pocket dimension, and walk through solids. It is highly sadistic and hunts humans as prey.

* put scp-035 on class D *
Scp-035: *starts singing*
Scientist: Noted

[yliold]

"035 is singing. is this normal?"
"Not sure. But he is good"
"Can somebody get that mask off?"

[chickenfish]

1:50 05: Bright how many annomalies did you breach

Dr.Bright:

[frostbite]

Everyone: SCP isn’t real.

2020: You know the rules, and so do I!

[jmbeats]

Me: 2020 ruined my Halloween.
CG5 releases a new SCP song.
Me: Not anymore.

[NorthBlight]

“So, we’re supposed to put SCP 035 on him so he can start a musical number..?”
“That’s what they asked for.”

[Diego-cede]

"Who the hell teached 035 to sing?!💀"

*Dr.Bright laughtin at the corner*

[FAUXNEWSOFFICIAL]

I'm glad that 096's face was censored so none of us died.
R.I.P Editor Guy

[hayate]

I like that SCP-096's head is always either not in shot or is blurred out, referencing his volatile disposition to those who view his face.

[borgsy]

Scientist 1 - "so how did the test go?"
Scientist 2 - "it was going alright until we put the mask on the subject... but then he just started to spit fire"
Scientist 1- "Like literal flames?"
scientist 2 - "No"

[blaezon]

Imagine being a scientist and testing 035 and all of the sudden it starts to scream "IMAGINE ALL YOUR NIGTMARES" and starts singing

[maddsflwrs]

As Michael Scott once said, "Im not superstitious, however I am a little stitious"

[nightfar.]

"Snapper of necks on a perfect day"
Ah yes, what a beautiful day to snap some necks

[CludiMshii]

Y’all keep seeing and commenting all these SCPs, but keep forgetting one. It’s in the lyrics ‘Straitjackets have been worn out’? I am positive that’s the Mentally Mutating Straitjacket, also known as SCP-482. It’s one of my favorites, which is probably why I recognized it so fast.

For those who want to know, SCP-482 is a black leather straitjacket that is pretty much damn near indestructible and has different anomalous reactions based on the wearers mental state. SCP-482 has two known effects, occurring the second you put it on. These have been identified as Time Points Alpha and Beta.

Point Alpha is when the mental disorder of the person wearing it seemingly disappears, like it never existed. For example, a D-Class who was a Pyromaniac, denied any sort of flammable materials and lighters when given the chance. Point Alpha effects start and last about 1 and 6 hours after you put it on.

Point Beta, however, is where things get ugly. During Point Beta, which occurs right after Point Alpha, the wearer experiences physical mutation that seems to be determined by the nature of the subject’s mental disorder. For example, after his Point Alpha, the pyromaniac D-Class instantly exploded.

Now, what is the wearer has multiple problem/disorders? Then it will work accordingly based on their strength.

Thanks for listening to my whole spiel.

"...there's more than 99..."
*Looks at the over 5000 articles*
Well, you're not wrong I guess.

[starsshallscream]

I LOVED THE PART WHERE HE STARTED NAMING ALL OF THE DIFFERENT SCPS THIS IS AMAZING
i also LOVED that he showed 079, even only for a second, i love that idiot GAFDAFGHJ

[kjpark]

Robot: Applies 035 To D-Class
035: Starts Singing
Researchers: *noted*

[uzspfxk]

“So let me get this straight. 035 first started singing when applied to a d-class, then killed a whole team by snapping its fingers like it was Jerma, and then caused the largest breach we’ve seen, yes?” “Yup.” “Bright! Get in here and start running more tests.”
