They suppose there's no reason not to tell you, since you'll be dead soon.

But if you'll be dead soon, isn't it just a waste of time?

The Overlord manual specifically warns against that.
7. When I've captured my adversary and he says, "Look, before you kill me, will you at least tell me what this is all about?" I'll say, "No." and shoot him.
No, on second thought I'll shoot him then say "No."

Of course, if you're still feeling hammy, give him a completely fake plan, just in case. If he manages to kick your groin and get rescued by his friends in the nick of time, they will go off on a wild goose chase, while you complete your real plan.

If a villain can pull off a monologue, especially where the monologue if their master plan and why they are doing it, and still beat the hero, it gets them in the villain hall of fame. its like a game to them.

If you spend however many months or years enacting a devious plan, wouldn't you be proud of it and want to tell others?
