1. a song that could have written about/for you.
avenue Q - i wish i could go back to college
we could be sitting in the computer lab
four a.m. before the final paper is due
cursing the world 'cause i didn't start sooner
and seeing the rest of the class there too
2. a song for that bad day to end all bad days.
modest mouse - cowboy dan
cowboy dan's a major player in the cowboy scene
he goes to the reservation, drinks and gets mean
he's gonna start a war
3. a song about the end of the world.
tom lehrer - we will all go together when we go
oh we will all char together when we char
and let there be no moaning of the bar
just sing out a te deum
when you see that ICBM
and the party will be come-as-you-are
4. a song about the devil.
pawn rook four - fight the devil
you've gotta fight the devil and all his evil ways
he's been stealing all the girls that you've been hitting on for days
but in his room they're all failing for his game
saying, "pleased to meet you, won't you guess my name?"
5. a song that reminds you of your favorite pair of jeans.
simon & garfunkel - cecilia
6. a song for lying to your mother.
fiona apple - mistake
do i wanna do right? of course, but
do i really wanna feel i'm forced
to answer you? hell no
i've acquired quite a taste
for a well-made mistake
7. a drunk song.
great big sea - the old black rum
because the old black rum's got a hold on me
like a dog wrapped 'round my leg
and the old black rum's got a hold on me
will i live for another day?
hey! will i live for another day?
8. a song for truth.
leonard cohen - everybody knows
everybody knows that the dice are loaded
everybody rolls with their fingers crossed
everybody knows that the war is over
everybody knows the good guys lost
everybody knows the fight was fixed
the poor stay poor, the rich get rich
that's how it goes
everybody knows
9. a song you could have written about somebody else.
john parr - st. elmo's fire
(one of john sheppard's many theme songs. no, shut up! i have this 90% storyboarded; one day i will learn to vid.)
just once in his life
a man has his time
and my time is now
i'm coming alive
10. a song to listen to while watching a fire burn.
rasputina - rusty the skatemaker
as she skated she always she thought of a pretty sound
that she heard as a girl in her mother's bed
the sound of some breathing another breath in and out
when some lungs expand and contract like they do
and she looked at herself in the ice of the riverbed
and she saw a girl one which she could see through
11. a song about an angel.
squirrel nut zippers - blue angel
sirens are streaming
inside the winding sheets are pale
devils are dreaming
dreaming of the blue angel
12. a modern-day lullabye.
ben folds five - lullabye
goodnight, goodnight, sweet baby
the world has more for you
than it seems, goodnight, goodnight
let the moonlight take the lid off your dreams
