I've decided that we need this to post song lyrics so we can always come back and remember all the songs we forgot ten minutes after posting them.

I suppose I'll start us off with a slightly creepy yet amazingly amazingly amazing song. :3 Lake Pontchartrain by Ludo I'll tell it like it happened, it was Darius and Noland and me, Just a few po' boys trying to get up out of Missouri. Took 55 to Louisiana, stopped down by the highway to eat. They both had crawfish. Strictly chicken for me. Back out under thunderheads, the radio was Southern soul. They interrupted Clarence Carter with a strange-a** local show. They were sayin'... "Come down to Lake Pontchartrain. Rest your soul and feed your brain. That's where you will get to see Everything the water can be." The rain was comin' down, the wind was howlin' outside of Slidell. It was the kind of night that makes you think the whole world's goin' to hell. We got off on an exit 'cause we couldn't read the map so great. Near the Choctaw Motel, we parked to deliberate, When out of the bayou came a man like the lake had a tongue. He was right up on the glass, all yellow-eyed, black teeth, bangin' on the windshield, Screamin' like a demon at the top of his lungs, "Come down to Lake Pontchartrain. Rest your soul and feed your brain. Free for you and all your friends. Crawfish 'til the bitter end. Come down to Lake Pontchartrain. Wade to where the shallows break. That's where you will get to see Everything the water can be." I was drivin' out of there as fast as a Camry could, But the interstate was flooded, so I had to take the road through the woods. Bad move in retrospect; the road disappeared in the rain, And I stood on the brakes when I saw the sign: "Lake Pontchartrain..." Darius was yelling that he saw somebody out in the swells; He jumped out, runnin', and Noland was goin' as well. "Come back!" Why the hell would they leave the car? And that's when I heard it, make no mistake - The voices were calling them from under the lake... "Come down to Lake Pontchartrain... Come down to Lake Pontchartrain... Come down to Lake Pontchartrain... Come down to Lake Pontchartrain..." The crawfish were screaming, the waves danced in time. My friends went in deeper; the water, it climbed. I watched in terror; the lake opened wide, And horribly roaring, it pulled them inside. That's how it happened! Why would I lie? There were no bodies, I've got none to hide. I'm just a poor boy, lost his friends in the rain. Any more questions, just go and ask Lake Pontchartrain.

Part I: Broken Bride by Ludo Fifteen years I raged against the constant C, the speed of light, The diagrams and haunted sleep, frozen sheets, in bed, my dreams: Your garden grave, I'd climb inside, hold your bones and slowly die, the cooling space inside your chest, my broken bride, you never breathed again. The circuits fail, the cosmic strings like rubber bands, I lose control, They snap, I fall through mist to mud against my face, the taste of blood, the world is strange, the stinking earth and giant trees, Through heavy air a demon shrieks, what have I done? What hell is waiting for me? I crashed before the birth of Christ, Pterodactyls swarming. You died in 1989, Just wanna get back to that morning in May. Keep you in bed, never escape, Holding you close, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh. Listen to you breathe the evening glow Of fading light and cooling space. Like motor oil down my throat, I couldn't speak, I dropped the phone, The burning flares, the steam, your hair, bits of glass, they sparkled everywhere, Like winter nights, the stars, the ice, all intertwined, to hold and keep, like petals pressed in sheets, making love to moonlight in our sleep. And now above the pits of tar, in a cave I hide, That massive screaming thing with wings of reaper's cloth, it's standing just outside, I must get to my machine, I will bring you back to life, Fix your ruined lungs, I'll undo what time has done! I crashed before the birth of Christ, Pterodactyls swarming. You died in 1989, Just wanna get back to that morning in May. Keep you in bed, never escape, Holding you close, oh-oh, ooo-oh-oh. Listen to you breathe the evening glow Of fading light and cooling space. I carve your sweet name into the cave, I'm sure to die. All my strife has been in vain. The glaciers come and wash my words away. I crashed before the birth of Christ, Pterodactyls swarming. You died in 1989, Just wanna get back to that morning in May. Keep you in bed, never escape, Holding you close, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh. Listen to you breathe the evening glow Of fading light and cooling space.

Better Open The Door by Motion City Soundtrack You better open the door before I take a hammer to the walls around it. I cannot let you inside my cell for fear I'll sink the ship and drag us both down. Our hell ends every weekend but it's all i have to believe in. Our hell ends every weekend but it's all i have to believe in. Matt makes his murderous demand: foreign films. I take a stand and it's all uphill from here (at least i hope so). Kate claims she can't depend on me for anything and I agree. It's crystal clear. I reach for the bottle and disappear. Our hell ends every weekend but it's all i have to believe in. Our hell ends every weekend but it's all i have to believe in. Frank fails to see the humor in my sad attempts at breakdancing in every bar along Lyndale Avenue. Liz likes to liqour up my thoughts from the C.C. Club to the Triple Rock there's no escape from thechorus of people screaming: You better open the door before I take a hammer to the walls around it. I cannot let you inside my cell for fear I'll sink the ship and drag us both down. Our hell ends every weekend but it's all i have to believe in. Our hell ends every weekend but it's all i have to believe in. I'll swim backwards. (x5) I'll swim alone the long goodbye. You better open the door before I take a hammer to the walls around it. I cannot let you inside my cell for fear I'll sink the ship and drag us both down.

Save Our City by Ludo "Mr. Mayor, the mission burns. The zombies are marching. They close on the square! Families are cold; look down at they're souls, Huddled in camps on the old marble steps of city hall. Faith in their God: that's all that they've got." Across the room, beyond the pane, The whole world is churning, bleeding and burning. Hailstorms and ash! The moon is as blood Over the soldiers who sag in the mud. Save our city. Keep our souls, Lord, Through the rapture Of this world. "Little boy, I'm just a man, A mere civil servant against this tyrant, God. I've allied with our King, salvation he brings, Protecting the city against all the troops Heaven sent, But the dead walk again. This is the end. "Oh, I'm just a man! My time has come! Long live King Simius! May he deliver us From this nightmare!" And with a blast like the sun, His lips are unwrapped from the barrel of his gun. Save our city. Keep our souls, Lord, Through the rapture Of this world. Fought and fell for our great King, We burned alive and boiled. The dragon, red and wrathful, calls. We rise and march once more. Cursed in death, we starve for flesh. Our skin is cooked and curled. We'll eat our kin and smash them in. In Hell, we'll grind their bones. Save our city. Keep our souls, Lord, Through the rapture Of this world. Save our city. Keep our souls, Lord, Through... The mayor's ruined head... The boy steps through the window And cries out from the ledge to the people below, "There's a time to pray, and there's a time to fight! Anything can be a weapon if you're holding it right! Defend what is yours! They will not take our souls! It's time now to rise and fight! "Save our city! Keep our souls, Lord! Right now and fight!"

Toy Boy by Mika I'm a wind up toy in an up-down world if you leave me all alone I'll make a mess for sure I've a heart of gold in the smallest size leave me in the dark you never hear me cry PRECHORUS 1: more than an illustration points of articulation come to life on a brass spring such a wonderful plaything VERSE 2: its a cruel cross that I have to bear if you come a little close I'm going to pull your hair more than just a toy in a patched blue suit when you hold me in your arms I'm just a boy like you but your momma thought there was something wrong didn't want you sleeping with a boy too long It's a serious thing in a grown-up world maybe you'd be better with a Barbie girl PRECHORUS 2 you knew that I adored ya but you left me in Georgia toys are not sentimental; how could i be for rental? VERSE 3 she's the meanest hag that has ever been pulled out my insides with an old safety pin I'm the sorest sight now i feel like trash clothes are made of rags and they don't even match so she dressed me up as the man she loved and threw me in a box when she had had enough now the light of day I no longer see she stuck her voodoo pins where my eyes used to be PRECHORUS 3 accidentally tragic victim of her black magic had a boy once who loved me now he's so afraid of me VERSE 4 on a long lost day when you're grey and old you'll be there remembering your old toy boy when your only son's wondering what to be tell him the story of a boy like me oooooooo oooooooo

Blame It On The Girls by Mika He's got looks that books take pages to tell He's got a face to make you fall on your knees He's got money in the bank to thank and I guess You could think he's livin' at ease Like lovers on the open shore -- What's the matter? When you're sitting there with so much more --What's the matter? while you're wondering what the hell to be Are you wishing you were ugly like me? Blame it on the girls who know what to do Blame it on the boys who keep hitting on you Blame it on your mother for the things she said Blame it on your father but you know he's dead Blame it on the girls Blame it on the boys Blame it on the girls Blame it on the boys Life could be simple but you never fail To complicate it every single time You could have children and a wife, a perfect little life But you blow it on a bottle of wine Like a baby you're a stubborn child -- what's the matter Always looking for an axe to grind -- what's the matter While you're wondering what the hell to do We were wishing we were lucky like you Blame it on the girls who know what to do Blame it on the boys who keep hitting on you Blame it on your mother for the things she said Blame it on your father but you know he's dead (2x) Blame it on the girls Blame it on the boys Blame it on the girls Blame it on the boys He's got looks that books take pages to tell He's got a face to make you fall on your knees He's got money in the bank to thank and I guess You could think he's livin' at ease Blame it on the girls who know what to do Blame it on the boys who keep hitting on you Blame it on your mother for the things she said Blame it on your father but you know he's dead (2x) Blame it on the girls Blame it on the boys Blame it on the girls Blame it on the boys

Peaches by The Presidents of the United States of America Movin' to the country, gonna eat a lot of peaches, Movin' to the country, gonna eat me a lot of peaches, Movin' to the country, gonna eat a lot of peaches, Movin' to the country, gonna eat a lot of peaches. Peaches come from a can, They were put there by a man, In A Factory down town, And if I had my little way, I'd eat peaches everyday, Sun soakin' bulges in the shade. Movin to the country, gonna eat a lot of peaches, Movin to the country, gonna eat a lot of peaches, Movin to the country, gonna eat a lot of peaches, Movin to the country, gonna eat a lot of peaches. I took a little nap where the roots all twist, Squished a rotten peach in my fist, And dreamed about you, woman. I poked my finger down inside, make a little room for an ant to hide, Nature's candy in my hand, or can, or pie. Millions of peaches, peaches for me, Millions of peaches, peaches for free, Millions of peaches, peaches for me, Millions of peaches, peaches for free, LOOK OUT! Millions of peaches, peaches for me, Millions of peaches, peaches for free, Millions of peaches, peaches for me, Millions of peaches, peaches for free, LOOK OUT! (repeat till fade)

Billy Brown by Mika Oh Billy Brown had lived an ordinary life. Two kids, a dog, and then the cautionary wife. While it was all going accordingly to plan Then Billy Brown fell in love with another man. He met his lover almost every single day Making excuses for his dodgy holiday On some religion that he said and duty found They didn't know that his faith was earthly bound Brown…Oh Billy Brown. Don't let the stars get you down. Don't let the waves let you drown. Brown…Oh Billy Brown. Gonna pick you up like a paper cup. Gonna shake the water out of every nook. Oh Billy Brown. Oh Billy Brown needed a place, somewhere to go. He found an island off the coast of Mexico Leaving his lover and his family behind. Oh Billy Brown needed to find some peace of mind. And on his journey and his travels on the way He met a girlie who was brave enough to say When they made love he shared the burden of his mind Oh Billy Brown you are a victim of the times. Brown…Oh Billy Brown. Don't let the stars get you down. Don't let the waves let you drown. Brown…Oh Billy Brown. Gonna pick you up like a paper cup. Gonna shake the water out of every nook. Oh Billy Brown. Brown…Oh Billy Brown. Gonna pick you up like a paper cup. Gonna shake the water out of every nook. Oh Billy Brown. Oh Billy Brown had lived an ordinary life. Two kids, a dog, and then the cautionary wife. While it was all going accordingly to plan Then Billy Brown fell in love with another man.

Smother Me by The Used Let me be the one who calls you baby All the time Surely you can take some comfort Knowing that you're mine Just hold me tight, lay by my side and let me be the one who calls you Baby all the time I found my place in the world Could stare at your face for the rest of my days Now I can breathe, turn my insides out and Smother me Warm and alive I'm all over you would you smother me? Let me be the one who never leaves You all alone I hold my breath and lose the feeling That I'm on my own Hold me too tight stay by my side and let me be the one who calls you Baby all the time I found my place in the world Could stare at your face for the rest of my days Now I can breathe, turn my insides out and Smother me Warm and alive I'm all over you would you smother me? When I'm alone time goes so slow I need you here with me and how my mistakes have made Your heart break Still I need you here with me Baby I'm here Now I can breathe, turn my insides out and Smother me Warm and alive I'm all over you would you smother me? Now I can breathe, turn my insides out and Smother me Warm and alive I'm all over you would you smother me? Let me be the one who calls you baby All the time Let me be the one who calls you baby All the time Let me be the one who calls you baby All the time Let me be the one who calls you baby... The one who calls you baby...
