Notes: I've fallen behind in the Insane Torchwood Vidlet Project, oh no! This was made for Ianto Day (yesterday) over on torchwoodadvent. I seem to be a day behind. (Should I still post this over there, even though Ianto Day has passed?) I guess at 2 minutes, it can't really be called a vidlet either. And I had to trim this down! Apparently, Ianto inspires excess vidding in me. Also, this was not originally going to be so Jack/Ianto. But Jack is very insistent, and the video kept wanting to go there. *g*
I'm sure I could spend the next several weeks fussing at it, but the point of this project is to get it done and not dwell so much. I have a problem with not finishing videos that I start. So, this is like quick sketching. And now I have to let it go. *deep breath* Ah, much better.

Lyrics:
Monday morning wake up knowing that you've got to go to school
Tell your mum what to expect, she says it's right out of the blue
Do you want to work in Debenham's, because that's what they expect
Start in Lingerie, and Doris is your supervisor
And the Head said that you always were a queer one from the start
For careers you say you want to be remembered for your art
Your obsessions get you known throughout the school for being strange
Making life-size models of the Velvet Underground in clay
Tell Veronica the secrets of the boy you never kissed
She sticks up for you when you get aggravation from the snobs
'Cause you can't afford a blazer and you're always wearing clogs
At the interval you lock yourself away inside a room
Head of English gets you, asks you, "What the hell do you think you're doing?"
"Do you think you're better than the other kids? Well, get outside."
You've got permission, but you've got to make the bastard think he's right
Hey, you've been used
Write a song, I'll sing along
Are you calm? Settle down
Soon you will know that you are sane
You're on top of the world again
And you're cool and you know
You're a star and you'll go far
Think of me as a friend
Not just the boy who played guitar
You're on top of the world again
