Haman's Song (also known as There Are Those Who Can't Be Trusted) is a song from the VeggieTales episode Esther, The Girl Who Became Queen. It is sung by Haman, who tricks Xerxes into banishing Mordecai and his family, as he refers to them as a "sneaky little family" who do sneaky little things.
Lyrics
Haman: Your Highness, I believe there is much to fear
King Xerxes: Oh, really? Those Peaonis are no longer here
Haman: A much greater danger may await you now
Xerxes: How's that possible?
Haman: With permission, Your Highness, I'll tell you how
Xerxes: Go on.
Haman: It's my duty to inform you and if I'm correct
To ignore this great emergency would be neglect
It's the motto of my office: "Serve and protect"
There are those who walk among us who show no respect
Xerxes: Really?
Haman: The law must be adjusted
There are those who can't be trusted
Xerxes: Oh my goodness! Tell me about these people.
Haman: A sneaky little family who do sneaky little things
Who stick their sneaky noses into matters of the King
I fear if they're not dealt with the prospect makes me weep
A Zucchini-shaped sarcophagus is where you'll sleep
Xerxes: Really?
The nerve! I am disgusted!
Haman: There are those who can't be trusted!
'King Xerxes:' That sure doesn't sound like a nice family.
Haman: Nope.
Your Highness, I believe we must act with speed
Xerxes: Agreed!
Say the word! I'll give you what you need!
Haman: A simple solution, but you must act now
Xerxes: Well, how can I help?
Haman: With permission, your Highness, I'll tell you how.
Xerxes: Go on.
Haman: After careful calculation, I've got just the thing
We'll send them to the dreaded Isle of Tickling
But before I can take action
We have to close the deal
And it needs the kingly imprint of your royal seal
Xerxes: I agree!
They must be busted
Both: There are those who can't be trusted
That sneaky little family who do sneaky little things
Who stick their sneaky noses into matters of the King
For crimes against the kingdom the punishment is steep
The Isle of Endless Tickling is where they'll sleep
Xerxes: The law is now adjusted!
Both: For those who can't be trusted
Haman: Ha!
Mordecai is busted
Chorus: There are those who can't be trusted
Haman: It's my duty to inform you and if I'm correct
To ignore this great emergency would be neglect

Xerxes: Really?
Haman: The law must be adjusted
There are those who can't be trusted
Xerxes: Go on.
Haman: After careful calculation, I've got just the thing
