Song Lyrics, take three: Because I am too lazy to try to resurrect the old one. So sue me.
Basically self explanatory, I would imagine. You post lyrics... to songs... Mainly I use these threads to (try) to rid myself of Ear Worms.

You're so nice...
You're not good,
You're not bad,
You're just nice.
I'm not good,
I'm not nice,
I'm just right.
I'm the Witch.
You're the world.
I'm the hitch.
I'm what no one believes,
I'm the Witch.
You're all liars and theives,
Like his father,
Like his son will be, too--
Oh, why bother?
You'll just do what you do.
It's the last midnight,
So, goodbye all.
Coming at you fast, midight-
Soon you'll see the sky fall.

When dragons belch and hippos flee
My thoughts, Ankh-Morpork, are of thee
Let others boast of martial dash
For we have boldly fought with cash
We own all your helmets, we own all your shoes
We own all your generals-- touch us and you'll lose
Morporkia! Morporkia!
Morporkia owns the day!
We can rule you wholesale
Touch us and you'll pay!
We bankrupt all invaders, we sell them souveniers
We ner ner ner ner, hner ner hner by the ears
Er hner we ner ner ner ner ner
Ner ner her ner ner hner the ner
Er ner ner hner ner, nher hner ner (etc.)
Ner hner ner, your gleaming swords
We mortgaged to the hilt
Morporkia! Morporkia!
Hner ner ner ner ner
We can rule you wholesale!
Credit where it's due!
(Incidentally, the second verse was written with all those ners on purpose, on the basis that no one would remember much after the first verse and that's how it would sound anyway).
...Me? A geek? No. But...
Crowning. Music. Of. Awesome. Especially in Unseen Academicals.
The last two lines should be sung at the top of one's lungs, to prove that one knows the words.
Got it?
Now imagine a huge football (read: soccer) field, packed with most of A-M's ~1,000,000 inhabitants, belting it out at the top of their lungs.
Yes.
Incidentally, the (new) Pax Morporkia reads more less like "If you fight, we'll call in your mortgages. And incidentally that's my pike you're pointing at me. I paid for that shield you're holding. And take my helmet off when you speak to me, you horrible little debtor."
Moral of the story? The U.S. needs a Vetinari.

LOL. Because it's very unpatriotic to sing a song about how patriotic you are.
In the Belly of the Whale, by the Newsboys. Love the Newsboys.
Up to my ears
In bitter tears.
Can't believe I've sunk this low
As I walk the plankton
Inner sanctum.
Got outta Dodge,
Sailed on a bon-less
Bon voyage.
You said North,
I headed South.
Tossed overboard.
Good Lord, that's a really large mouth...
I'm sleeping with fishes here,
In the belly of the whale.
I'm highly nutritious here,
In the belly of the whale.
Bad food, lousy atmosphere.
I don't wanna bellyache.
How long is this gonna take?
Woke up this morning kinda blue,
Thinking through that age-old question:
How to exit a whale's digestion?
It might behoove me to be heaved.
Head out like a human comet.
Hmmm... I wonder what rhymes with comet.
I'm sleeping with fishes here,
In the belly of the whale.
I'm highly nutritious here,
In the belly of the whale.
I'm ready to reappear.
I don't wanna bellyache.
Lord, how long's this gonna take?
End times, they come rolling around.
Enzymes, they come breaking us down to the core.
The good Lord grants we all get a second chance.
I'm one of the dishes here,
In the belly of the whale.
They say I'm delicious here,
In the belly of the whale.
Lord, please make him chuck it all.
It's a gut call
In the belly of the whale.
I'm in the belly of the whale.
In the belly of the whale.
I'm in the belly.
In the belly of the whale.
I'm in the belly of the whale.
In the belly of the whale.
I'm in the belly...
In the belly of the whale
In an underwater jail
It's a tight squeeze.
It's a-gettin' to me,
But it's roomier
Than the tail.
Hey, sailor,
Got my flow free
Like a salmon to the sea
From the L.A. Symphony.
I'm a paddleboat
Paddlin' in their wake,
A fake free-styler,
But my unemployment pays.
I'm avoiding clichés
Like "whale of a tale" say
Or "you can't keep
A good man down,"
'Cause you can
And I've been there, man.
But I've been expectorated.
I'm elated!
I'm free like Willie!
Happy Day!
Oops,
That's a bit of a cliché.
In the belly...

His Cheeseburger
He said to her, "I'd like a cheeseburger.
And I might like a milkshake as well."
She said to him, "I can't get you either."
And he said, "Isn't this Burger Bell?"
She said, "Yes it is but we're closed now.
But we open tomorrow at ten."
He said, "I am extremely hungry!
But I guess I can wait until then!"
Cuz you're his cheeseburger
His yummy cheeseburger
He'll wait for you. Ya!
He'll wait for you.
Oh, you are his cheeseburger
His tasty cheeseburger
He'll wait for you
Oh, he will wait for you.
He stayed at the drive-thru till sunrise
He may have dozed off once or twice
When he spotted a billboard for Denny's
Bacon and eggs for half price!
How could he resist such an offer?
He really needed something to munch.
Cheeseburger, please do not get angry
He'll eat and be back here for lunch!
Cuz you're his cheeseburger
His precious cheeseburger
Be back for you.
He'll be back for you.
Won't be so long, cheeseburger
Oh, lovely cheeseburger
Be back for you
Oh, he'll be back for you.
Cuz he loves you cheeseburger with all his heart
And there's nothin' gonna tear you two apart
And if the world suddenly ran out of cheese,
He would get down on his hands and knees
To see if someone accidently dropped some cheese in the dirt
And he would wash it off for you
Wipe it off for you
Clean that dirty cheese off just for you!
You are his cheese ... burrrr ... grrrrr!

Somehow, you could tell it was written by a troll.
...
I'm not saying you don't know him
And I'm not saying he don't care
But still, you gotta prepare
'Cause whether or not there's presents and rice
And all that stuff
Soon enough
There's sacrifice
So it's not all roses
And it's not about dreams come true
No matter what I wish for you
It's more about things you have to do
And you can't go throwing money around
I hope you've got more than your Pa and me, but even if you do you can't go throwing it around. Especially when the children come.
I'm not married, and you've got me having children.
Go ask that friend in California.
You'll have kids before you know it
And your life won't be your own
Even after they're grown
All the things you do without
All the nights you lie awake
For your children's sake
So don't go thinking that it's all just one good time
Oh, there's some good times
But don't go thinkin' that it won't be an uphill climb
Where you find yourself
Wond'rin' how it ever got to be this way
Wond'rin' how you're gonna last another day
Wait-- That isn't really what I meant to say...
No, it's a good thing, getting married
It's the thing that people do
Now you found the fella for you
So you'll each wear a groove in the side of the bed
Each learn to ignore things the other one said
And you'll smile when you think about the day you were wed...

Brand New Day, from Dr. Horrible
This appeared as a moral dilemma 'cause at first
It was weird though I swore to eliminate the worst
Of the plague that devoured humanity it's true
I was vague on the "how" - so how can it be that you
Have shown me the light
It's a brand new day
And the sun is high
All the birds are singing
That you're gonna die
How I hesitated
Now I wonder why
It's a brand new day
All the time that you beat me unconscious I forgive
All the crimes incomplete - listen, honestly I'll live
Mr. Cool, Mr. Right, Mr. Know-It-All is through
Now the future's so bright and I owe it all to you
Who showed me the light
It's a brand new me
I got no remorse
Now the water's rising
But I know the course
I'm gonna shock the world
Gonna show Bad Horse
It's a brand new day
And Penny will see the evil me
Not a joke, not a dork, not a failure
And she may cry but her tears will dry
When I hand her the keys to a shiny new Australia
It's a brand new day
Yeah the sun is high
All the angels sing
Because you're gonna die
Go ahead and laugh
Yeah I'm a funny guy
Tell everyone goodbye
It's a brand new day
GO AND WATCH IT. MY WISH IS YOUR COMMAND
(June 14, 2010 - 4:12 pm)
Look at these people
Amazing how sheep'll
Show up for the slaughter
No one condemning you
Lined up like lemmings you
Led to the water
Why can't they see what I see
Why can't they hear the lies
Maybe the fee's to pricey
For them to realize
Your disguise is
Slipping
I think you're slipping
Now that your saviour
Is still as the grave you're
Beginning to fear me
Like cavemen fear thunder
I still have to wonder
Can you really hear me
I bring you pain, the kind
You can't suffer quietly
Fire up your brain
Remind you inside
Your rioting society is
Slipping
Everything's slipping... away so...
Go ahead! Run away!
Say it was Horrible!
Spread the word! Tell a friend!
Tell them the tale!
Get a pic! Do a blog!
Heroes are over with!
Look at him! Not a word!
Hammer, meet nail!
Then I win! Then I get
Everything I ever--
All the cash! All the fame!
And social change!
Anarchy! That I run!
It's Dr. Horrible's turn!
You people all have to learn
This world is going to burn!
Burn! Bu-- yeah, it's two R's, H-O-R-R... yeah, right.
Burn!
No sign of Penny, good
I would give anything
Not to have her see
It's gonna be bloody
Head up, Billy Buddy
There's no time for mercy...
Here goes 'no mercy...'

I'm a Loser
By John Lennon and Paul McCartney
(Intro) I'm a looo-oo-ser;
I'm a loooo-oo-ser;
And I'm not what I appear to be.
(dadadadum.)
(1) Of all the love I have won or have lost;
(dadadadum.)
There is one love I should have never have crossed.
(dadadadum.)
She was a girl in a million, my friend;
I should've known she would win in the end.
(Verse) I'm a loo-oo-ser, and I lost someone who's near to me;
I'm a loo-oo-ser;
And I'm not what I appear to be.
(dadadadum.)
(2) Although I laugh
And I act like a clown;
(dadadadum.)
Beneath this mask I am wearing a frown.
(dadadadum.)
My tears are fa-ling like rain from the sky
(dadadadum.)
Is it for her
Or myself that I cry.
(Verse) I'm a loo-oo-ser
And I lost someone who's near to me
I'm a loo-oo-ser;
And I'm not what I appear to be.
(3) What have I done to deserve such a fate;
(dadadadum.)
I reilize I have left it too late.
(dadadadum.)
And so it's true
Pride comes before a fall;
(dadadadum.)
I'm tellin' you
so that you won't lose all.
(Verse) I'm a loo-oo-ser (etc.)
Help (<3)
By Lohn Lennon and Paul McCartney
(Intro) Help! I need somebody, Help! Not just andybody, Help! You know I need someone;
He-e-el-e-el-e-e-e-elp.
(1) When I was younger, so much younger than todaa-aay;
I never needed anybody's
HELP IN ANY WAY
But now these days are gone I'm not so self-ass-uur-ur-ured;
Now I find
I've changed my mind
I've opened up the doors
(Verse) Help me if you can, I'm feeling doow-ow-own;
(dow, dow, dow)
And I do appreciate you being rou-ou-ound;
(dow, dow, dow)
Help me get my feet back on the grou-ou-ound;
Won't you please, please help me?
(2) And now my life has changed in oh so many way-ay-ays;
My independence seems to van-ish in the haze;
But ev'ry now and then I fell so insecure-ure-ure
I know that I just need you like
I've never done before.
(Verse)
(3) When I was younger, so much younger than todaa-aay;
I never needed anybody's
HELP IN ANY WAY
But now these days are gone I'm not so self-ass-uur-ur-ured;
Now I find
I've changed my mind
I've opened up the doors
(Verse) Help me if you can, I'm feeling doow-ow-own;
(dow, dow, dow)
And I do appreciate you being rou-ou-ound;
(dow, dow, dow)
Help me get my feet back on the grou-ou-ound;
Won't you please, please help me? Help me? Help me-ee-ee!
OOOOOOOOOO.

Fall for You by SecondHand Serenade
Best thing about tonight's that we're not fighting
Could it be that we have been this way before
I know you don't think that I am trying
I know you wearing thin down to the core
But hold your breath
Because tonight will be the night that i will fall for you
Over again
Don't make me change my mind
Or I won't live to see another day
I swear its true
Because a girl like you is impossible to find
You're impossible to find
This is not what I intended
I always swore to you I'd never fall apart
You always thought that I was stronger
I may have failed
But I have loved you from the start
Oh, But hold your breath
Because tonight will be the night that I will fall for you
Over again
Don't make me change my mind
Or I won't live to see another day
I swear it's true
Because a girl like you is impossible to find
It's impossible
So breathe in so deep
Breathe me in, I'm yours to keep
And hold onto your words 'cause talk is cheap
And remember me tonight when you're asleep
Because tonight will be the night that I will fall for you
Over again
Don't make me change my mind
Or I won't live to see another day
I swear it's true
Because a girl like you is impossible to find
Tonight will be the night that I will fall for you
Over again
Don't make me change my mind
Or I won't live to see another day
I swear it's true
Because a girl like you is impossible to find
You're impossible to find
Giving Up the Gun by Vampire Weekend (sounds like a freaky group, right? No, just some regular guys and one of their members was in a movie called Vampire Weekend. And, this song is epicness.)
Your sword's grown old and rusty,
Burnt beneath the rising sun.
It's locked up like a trophy, forgetting all the things it's done
And though it's been a long time,
Your right back where you started from.
I see it in your eyes,
That now you're giving up the gun.
When I was seventeen, I had wrists like steel
And I felt complete
But now my body fades, behind a brass charade
And I'm obsolete
But if the chance remained to see those better days,
I'd cut the cannons down.
My ears are blown to bits, from all those rifle hits,
But still I crave that sound.
Your sword's grown old and rusty,
Burnt beneath the rising sun.
It's locked up like a trophy, forgetting all the things it's done
And though it's been a long time,
Your right back where you started from.
I see it in your eyes,
That now you're giving up the gun.
I heard you play guitar down at a seedy bar
Where skinheads used to fight.
Your Tokugawa smile and your garbage style
Used to save the night.
You felt the coming wave, told me we'd all be brave.
You said you wouldn't flinch
But in the years that passed, since I saw you last
You haven't moved an inch.
Your sword's grown old and rusty,
Burnt beneath the rising sun.
It's locked up like a trophy, forgetting all the things it's done
And though it's been a long time,
Your right back where you started from.
I see it in your eyes,
That now you're giving up the gun.
I see you shine in your way.
Go on, go on, go on
I see you shine in your way,
Go on, go on, go on
I see you shine in your way.
Go on, go on, go on
I see you shine in your way,
Go on, go on, go on
I see you shine in your way.
Go on, go on, go on
I see you shine in your way,
Go on, go on, go on
Your sword's grown old and rusty,
Burnt beneath the rising sun.
It's locked up like a trophy, forgetting all the things it's done
And though it's been a long time,
Your right back where you started from.
I see it in your eyes,
That now you're giving up the gun.
I LOVE those songs! :) They make me smile. :)

URSULA
When Daddy dear was floating on his deathbed
He divvied up the kingdom into two
I got his magic shell
And half the sea as well
His trident went to—
You know who his trident went to – don’t you, babies!
My reign – why, it was blissfully delicious!
And glamour, glitz and style were au courant!
Did I use some black magic?
Well, oopsie— my bad!
Did I mutilate, maim and destroy?
Just a tad!
And for that, I get banished!
But me, I’m not mad
There’s just one little thing that I want...
Just one eensy teensy thing that I want:
I want the good times back!
I want those grand ol’ days!
I want the twisted nights
The sick delights
The wild soireés!
I want those trembling crowds of shellfish
Cracked and peeled for me to dine
Not because I’m mean or selfish—
FLOTSAM & JETSAM
No!
URSULA
I only want what’s mine!
I want disgusting wealth!
I want exquisite sin!
Want the entire sea
To worship me
On bended fin!
I want to greet my loving subjects
And then have them as a snack!
Remember those good times?
I want them back!
Picture it, my sucklings. Pretty soon, we’ll be back on top! Sipping bubbly.
Eating caviar before it hatches!
King Triton is the only thing that stands in my way.
If only I can find his Achilles heel… the soft quivering underbelly beneath all that armor…
I’ll dethrone him!
De-bone him! And then boys… oh, boys… we’re back in business! All together now:
FLOTSAM & JETSAM
You’ll bring the good times back!
Resume your wacky fun!
Restore the joyful charm
Of causing harm
To everyone!
URSULA
I want to make the merfolk cower
Like they did in days of yore
Sure, it’s sheer abuse of power—
FLOTSAM & JETSAM
So?
URSULA
Ain’t that what power’s for?
I want to taste their tears!
I want to hear their screams!
I want the special rush
You get from crushing
Hopes and dreams!
FLOTSAM & JETSAM
It’s more than simply sentimental—
Ursula
It’s an aphrodisiac!
FLOTSAM & JETSAM
Remember those good times!
URSULA
Oh god were they good times!
FLOTSAM & JETSAM
It’s time for more good times!
URSULA
Let’s get them back!
If only I had a way
To make him pay
I’d set ol’ Triton straight!
FLOTSAM
Poison?
JETSAM
Sure…
FLOTSAM
Blackmail?
JETSAM
Or…
FLOTSAM
His daughters…
JETSAM
Maybe—
URSULA
Wait!
Why didn’t we think of it before? His youngest!
FLOTSAM
The one with the beautiful voice?
URSULA
Which she takes for granted.
A woman doesn’t know how precious her voice is until she’s been silenced. Ha!
Perhaps we could teach them both a lesson…
I want the little girl!
FLOTSAM
Ooh.
URSULA
And boys, I want her bad!
JETSAM
Ahh.
URSULA
I want her sitting here
To lure her dear
Devoted dad!
FLOTSAM & JETSAM
Mmmm.
URSULA
I want my goody-goody brother
To come rescue her – the sap!
And then one way or another—
FLOTSAM & JETSAM
Surprise!
URSULA
I’ll spring the trap!
And get the good times back!
I mean with all the perks!
The trident, crown, the throne—
All mine alone!
The whole damn works!
But most of all, I want ol’ Triton
Pinned and wriggling on the rack
Then, fellas, it’s my time!
And frankly, it’s high time!
Those fabulous good times...
They’re coming back!

But I pray anyway
