Dork's Mental Mansion Playlist
Reaper
Tori Amos -- The Beekeeper
"'Do you know who I am?' she said.
'I'm the one who taps you on the shoulder
When it's your time.
Don't be afraid; I promise that she will awake
Tomorrow, somewhere.'"
The Tiny Gil
Jewel -- Hands
"My hands are small, I know;
But they're not yours. They are my own.
But they're not yours, they are my own,
And I am never broken.
In the end, only kindness matters."
Xerxie
Billy Joel -- She's Always A Woman
"She's frequently kind, and she's suddenly cruel.
She can do as she pleases. She's nobody's fool.
And she can't be convicted; she's earned her degree,
And the most she will do is throw shadows at you,
But she's always a woman to me."
The Tiny Elliot (Wiv the Dog)
Man of La Mancha -- The Impossible Dream
"To dream the impossible dream. To fight the unbeatable foe.
To bear with unbearable sorrow. To run where the brave dare not go.
To right the unrightable wrong. To love, pure and chaste from afar.
To try, when your arms are too weary, to reach the unreachable star!
This is my quest, to follow that star --
No matter how hopeless, no matter how far.
To fight for the right, without question or pause --
To be willing to march into Hell for a Heavenly cause..."
Shelly
Eric Clapton -- Wonderful Tonight
"We go to a party, and everyone turns to see
This beautiful lady who's walking around with me.
And then she asks me, 'Do you feel alright?'
And I say, 'Yes, I feel wonderful tonight.'
I feel wonderful because I see the love-light in your eyes,
And the wonder of it all is that you just don't realize
How much I love you."
Gillie
Babe -- If I Had Words
"If I had words to make a day for you,
I'd sing you a morning, golden and new.
I would make this day last for all time,
And give you a night deep in moonshine."
The Tiny Liam
David Bowie -- Nature Boy
"And then, one day -- one magic day -- he passed my way.
And while we spoke of many things -- fools and kings --
This he said to me:
The greatest thing you'll ever learn
Is just to love
And be loved in return."
Gillyweed
Delain -- April Rain
"Count your blessings and prepare to change your point of view.
All those days that you spend waiting won't come back to you.
Take off the glasses that have treated your world black and grey;
It doesn't get easy, don't you know?
Fortune smiles on you.
You're not watching."
Hobbles
Guster -- Happier
"Say goodbye, lose your friends, make them go; don't need them around,
Cause it's time. Lose your friends, make them go. Was never supposed to be like this.
They were too weak, too prone to break; their needs too deep, their skin too thin.
By now you took what was to take. Tear it apart and start again.
So go on, if this will make you happier.
It got you this far, did what you had to."
Stuffy
Tori Amos -- Baker Baker
"Baker, baker, baking a cake,
Make me a day. Make me whole again.
And I wonder if he's okay?
If you see him, say hi."
Knave
Rufus Wainwright -- Hallelujah
"It goes like this -- the fourth, the fifth;
The minor fall, the major lift --
The baffled king composing hallelujah."
Liam
Ben Folds -- The Luckiest
"I love you more than I have
Ever found a way to say
To you."
The Mansion
Imogen Heap -- Hide and Seek
"Where are we? What the hell is going on?
The dust has only just begun to form.
Crop circles in the carpet, sinking feeling...
Mmm, whatcha say? Mmm, that you only meant well?
Well, of course you did.
Mmm, whatcha say? Mmm, that it's all for the best?
Of course it is.
Mmm, whatcha say? Mmm, that it's just what we need?
You decided this.
Whatcha say? Mmm, what did she say?"
