I want a hippopotamus for Christmas
Only a hippopotamus will do
Don't want a doll, no dinky tinker toys
I want a hippopotamus to play with and enjoy

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas
I don't think Santa Claus will mind, do you?
He won't have to use a dirty chimney flue
Just bring him through the front door
That's the easy thing to do

I can see ( Read more... )

Everyday is a struggle between what I wanna say
And what I should keep to myself
And the words that manage to leave my lips
Don't hurt me, but they hurt everyone else

So I find myself in need of a pause
I'm not sure why, but I think that it's because
Of this desire to be what others want me to be
Which is nothing close to me

But I'll see better when the ( Read more... )

i know i can’t take one more step towards you
cause all thats waiting is regret
don’t you know i’m not your ghost anymore
you lost the love i loved the most

i learned to live, half alive
and now you want me one more time

who do you think you are?
runnin’ ’round leaving scars
collecting a jar of hearts
tearing love apart
you’re gonna catch a cold

Tori Amos - Gold Dust
Sights and sounds pull me back down another year.
I was here. I was here.
Whipping past the reflecting pool, me’n you skipping school,
And we make it up as we go along. We make it up we go along.

You said you raced from Langley pulling me underneath,
A cherry blossom canopy, (blossoming)
Do I Have- of course I have, ( Read more... )

Feeling a little tranquillized
Let the rhythm of the night come alive
Nothing left to do until sunrise
So lets take off up into the friendly sky to fly

One  -  Move your feet to the left
Two  -  Throw your arms in the air
Three  -  Kick it - back it up for me
Four  -  Move it to the right you'll see

Boys and girls of every age
Wouldn't you like to see something strange?

Come with us and you will see
This, our town of Halloween

This is Halloween, this is Halloween
Pumpkins scream in the dead of night

This is Halloween, everybody make a scene
Trick or treat till the neighbors gonna die of fright
It's our town, everybody scream
In this town ( Read more... )

There’s nothing quite like watching a sloppy, beer-induced rendition of a classic tune. Some liquid courage is all that most men need to stand up in front of a crowd of strangers and belt out semi-faithful covers of their favorite songs. Musically speaking, this tends to be a dicey proposition, but for the purposes of a good Monday morning story, ( Read more... )

Hey, a teensy bit of randomness here... :) I know that y'all have probably done this already, all fandoms I've ever been in involved in (or heard of) have this - a sort of series/fandom "soundtrack", or at least a list of songs that fans can somehow attribute to their fandom or its characters ( Read more... )

(Still love this, the song & the video)

Eins, zwei, drei, vier, fünf
Sechs, sieben, acht, neun, Aus.

Alle warten auf das Licht
Fürchtet euch fürchtet euch nicht
Die Sonne scheint mir aus den Augen
Sie wird heute Nacht nicht untergehen
Und die Welt zählt laut bis zehn

Eins
Hier kommt die Sonne
Zwei
Hier kommt die Sonne
Drei
Sie ist der hellste ( Read more... )
