My theme song. Puttin on the Ritz by Taco.

If you're blue and you don't know
where to go to why don't you go
where fashion sits
Puttin' on the Ritz
Different types who wear a day
coat pants with stripes and cutaway
coat perfect fits
Puttin' on the Ritz
Dressed up like a million-dollar trooper
Tryin' hard to look like Gary Cooper (super duper)
Come let's mix where Rockefellers
walk with sticks or um-ber-ellas
in their mitts
Puttin' on the Ritz

Have you seen the well-to-doUp and down Park AvenueOn that famous thoroughfareWith their noses in the airHigh hats, and arrow collarsWhite spats, and lots of dollarsSpending every dimeFor a wonderful time

If you're blue and you don't know
where to go to why don't you go
where fashion sits
Puttin' on the Ritz
Different types who wear a day
coat pants with stripes and cutaway
coat perfect fits
Puttin' on the Ritz
Dressed up like a million-dollar trooper
Tryin' hard to look like Gary Cooper (super duper)
Come let's mix where Rockefellers
walk with sticks or um-ber-ellas
in their mitts
Puttin' on the Ritz

(tap dance break)

Dressed up like a million-dollar trooperTryin' hard to look like Gary Cooper (super duper)
If you're blue and you don't know
where to go to why don't you go
where fashion sits
Puttin' on the Ritz
Puttin' on the Ritz
Puttin' on the Ritz
Puttin' on the Ritz

Move...
Move...

Gotta dance
Gotta dance...

If you're blue and you don't know
where to go to why don't you go
where fashion sits
Puttin' on the Ritz...
Puttin' on the Ritz...
Puttin' on the Ritz...

The Beets- Killer Tofu

Killer Tofu!

Fast food feels fuzzy
'cause it's made from stuff that's scuzzy
I always thought I was such a nerd
I refused to touch that strange bean curd
I wouldn't eat it
No
but it ate you!

Ah eee oooh
Killer Tofu
Eee ah eee
Oooh eee ooh
Killer Tofu

I eat my sugar cereal
but it makes my teeth bacterial
If you're feeling kind of cruddy
just stick right by your buddy
And don't eat
too much fried food!

Ah eee oooh
Killer Tofu
Eee ah eee
Oooh eee ooh
Killer Tofu

Jonathan Coulton- IKEA:

Ikea: just some oak and some pine and a handful of Norsemen
Ikea: selling furniture for college kids and divorced men
Everyone has a home
But if you don’t have a home you can buy one there

I wrote a poem about IKEA once.

Super Furry Animals - Demons
Clarity just confuses me
The lines drawn on a map, a strange assembly
When there's northerners in southerners
And westenders in eastenders
And sunny days in January
Left spaces in my diary

But the demons never need to know
What the demons never got to see
As we fall in and out of line
Stay in touch now for a while

Because I know that apathy only ruined me
Hanging around waiting for calamity

And by the year four million
Our skins will be vermilion
I own a dartboard memory
So I'll forget any felony

But the demons never need to know
What the demons never got to see
As we fall in and out of line
Stay in touch now for a while

Because I know that you know that we know they don't know what's going on

But the demons never need to know
What the demons never got to see
As we fall in and out of line
Stay in touch now for a while

But the demons never need to read
What we never got around to write
A flirt with mediocrity comes with a heavy penalty

Because I know that you know
That we know they don't know what's going on...


The Flaming Lips - The Gash
Is that gash in your leg
Really why you have stopped?
‘Cause I’ve noticed all the others
Though they’re gashed, they’re still going
‘Cause I feel like the real reason
That you’re quitting, that you’re admitting
That you’ve lost all the will to battle on

Will the fight for our sanity
Be the fight of our lives?
Now that we’ve lost all the reasons
That we thought that we had

Still the battle that we’re in
Rages on till the end
With explosions, wounds are open
Sights and smells, eyes and noses
But the thought that went unspoken
Was understanding that you’re broken
Still the last volunteer battles on
Battles on
Battles on


My senior quote was quite nearly from that song, but they went with my first submission instead which was some Voltaire that I had just come up with randomly. Damn.

I don't expect any of you to read these. I barely pay attention to lyrics anyways. The only band that I really pay attention to lyrics is The Flaming Lips. The Super Furry Animals song just grabbed me though.

"so begins our alabee" by of Montreal

and so begins - begins our odyssey
and we begin - begin our odyssey
and so begins - begins our odyssey

the auria is bleeding and the boyish voice is leaving
I’ve been an evil tenor I filled the innocents doe eyes with glue
you’re my only softness you’re my only pleasure it’s true
and I never want to be your little friend the abject failure

and so begins - begins our odyssey
and we begin - begin our odyssey
and so begins - begins our odyssey

the chrysalis is breaking and the super ego’s waking
I’ve been a gloomy Petrarch with a quill as weepy as Dido
you’re my mousy aesthete you’re my bouyant cherub it’s true
and I never want to be your little friend the abject failure

Initiation by At the Drive-In

i-n-i-t-i-a-t-i-o-n
follow you home after every show

perforated into tiny fragments
heavy breathing's your new fan club
a john handcock with the safety off
after every show
and how this pedastel fits like glove
such a pity i built no ladder from
the roots and above
i'll be hacking off
after every show

initiation
there's no restraining order to keep me from you
these parting contestants neverwin

watch you clap your hands by the stage
lend me your ears
for just another page
in the book that your friend signed yesterday
when i told you not to bother to holler
your telephone's the one
that helped
me wrap
the cord
around your neck
you know you're beautiful
when you're dead

initiation
there's no restraining order to keep me from you
these parting contestants never win


gogogo stalker songs!

Dramamine by Modest Mouse

Travelling swallowing Dramamine
Feeling spaced breathing out listerine
I'd said what I'd said that I'd tell ya
And that you'd killed the better part of me
If you could just milk it for everything
I've said what I'd said and you know what I mean
But I still can't focus on anything
We kiss on the mouth but still cough down our sleeves
Travelling swallowing dramamine
Look at your face like you're killed in a dream
And you think you've figured out everything
I think I know my geography pretty damn well
You say what you need so you'll get more
If you could just milk it for everything
I've said what I said and you know what I mean
But I can't still focus on anything


Two of my favorites. I like the lyrics. I don't think they are my favorites lyrics, but I like them and can't exactly think of any songs with great lyrics right now.

No, my friends. You just lost the thread. And you also lost at life.

Wow, Sharp. Looks like it's you versus the entire forum. Looks like we're not the ones losing at life, hmm?
