CHORUS
Who do you want to be today?
Who do you want to be?
Who do you want to be today?
Do you want to be just like someone on T.V.?

Oh boredom is so terrible, it's like a dread disease
Nothing could be worse
Than when there's nothing on T.V.
I'd rather be a cowboy than to stare blank at the walls
I've been reborn so many times
I can't remember them all
(And I say)

CHORUS

Just like someone on T.V.!

I think I'll be a teddy boy, I think I'll be a hunk
I think I'll be a tough guy and I think I'll be a punk
I might just be a fashion star
All dressed in frilly rags
Or perhaps I'll cross the other...

With sadness in my heart and joy in my mind
I thought about the ghost that we left behind.
With everyone around telling us what to do
With deafening sound whisper "I love you."
The fire in your eyes-- may it never go out.
The sweetness of your tears make it feel like night.
I see no escape from the roles we always play
What do we have to prove on this judgement day

You're missing the whole point-- you're not my little pet
Don't throw away your life-- The games not over yet
I do not own your soul--don't want you in a cage
I only want your heart to find a special place

You're mine now But you're...

1. you look up pictures of the person all the time.

2. you can't stop thinking of the person.

3. you dream about marrying the person.

4. you drool everytime you watch them sing.

5. you have a giggle fit everytime they take their shirt off.

6. you have a million pictures of the person.

7. you want to meet the person more then anything.

8. you know their songs by heart.

9. you dream of kissing them.

10. You want to kill anybody who makes fun of that person.

11. You watch videos with that person in it all the time.

12. You have them as your icon.

13. you would die for them.

Ode To Danny Elfman
by ~PMElfman

My heart bled
when I found out
man of my dreams
without a doubt
now he's married
to Bridget Fonda;
a man the size
of an anaconda.


His hair so red
his eyes so hazel
lullaby in bed
the voice of an angel
with a devilish smile
he is so divine
and a little bit wild
I wish he were mine.


Some call it
obsession
I like to call it
a confession
for what I love,
this infection
of harmony from above.

(I thought I heard somebody cry -- I thought I heard somebody cry)

I went to see what I could find
Like flowers in the dead of night
Like shadows in the moonlight -- I though I heard somebody cry
A choir with a single voice -- A picnic on a cliff
Antenna like an insect -- To pick up all your thoughts

CHORUS
It isn't true
I am not the ghost
Without a soul . . . Come
Listen to my heart
You feel the beat . . . Stop
Listen to the sound
Of moving feet . . . Walk
Through the halls at night
When I'm asleep
I don't believe . . .I don't believe

The shoe is on the other foot -- The glove is on the fist...

(What is the law?)
(What is the law?)

Animals came from miles around
So tired of walking so close toe the ground
They needed a chance, that's what they said
Life is better walking on two legs
But they were in for a big surprise
'Cause they didn't know the law!

CHORUS
(What is the law)
No spill blood
What is the law
(No spill blood)

(Who makes the rules)
Someone else
Who makes the rules
(Someone else)

The rules are written in the stone
Break the rules and you get no bones
All you get is ridicule, laughter
And a trip to the house of pain!

CHORUS (in reverse order)

We walk on two legs not on four...

Well I wish real hard when I close my eyes
If I could change the world--would I even try
If I found a reason to regain my pride
Oh if I try to believe--try to believe

CHORUS
It's so hard to find an answer
It's so hard to stand alone
It's so hard to find a feeling
That was buried long ago
It's so hard to trust another
When it's easier to hide
It's so hard to believe
Unless we try baby try

If I had a dream and it got away
If I found the words would I know what to say
If I had a chance to be someone else
Yeah if I try to believe, try to believe

CHORUS
It's so hard to find an answer
It's so hard...

Danny I love you
I love you so much
I just wish we could touch.

I listen to your music
I listen to your scores
I listen to my heart ake ever slightly more

How I wish I was old
How I wish I was
But there is no way that can happen
I can never be with you

You well never know me
I well never know you
If I met you
My dream would come true

(this is in dutch)

Danny ik hou van jou
ik hou zo veel van jou
ik wensde dat we elkaar konden aanraken

ik luister naar je muziek
ik luister naar je soundtracks
ik luister naar mijn hart nog een beetje meer

ik wensde dat ik oud was
ik wens het zo erg
maar er is geen mogelijkheid dat dat gaat gebeuren
ik kan nooit bij jou zijn

je zal me nooit kennen
ik zal jou nooit kennen
als ik je ontmoet
zal mijn droom uitkomen

Oh Danny can't you see
I was made for you
and you for me

I well love you forever
I well always be true
nothing well make me live you

Even if you are gone most of the day
Nothing well make me go away
I well never stop loving you

Everytime you smile I'll smile
Everytime your sad I'll dry your tears
I well walk far for what you need
Even if I have to walk miles

(this is in french)

OH Danny ne vous voir
J'ai été faite pour vous
et vous me

Je t'aime bien à jamais j'être bien toujours vrai
rien de bien me faire vivre vous

Même si vous n'êtes plus disparu de la journée
Rien de bien me faire disparaître
J'ai bien jamais arrêter épris de vous

Chaque fois que vous souriez je vais sourire
Chaque fois que votre triste je vais sécher vos larmes

Superstar~by~Taylor Swift

This is wrong but
I can't help but feel like
There ain't nothing more right babe
Misty morning comes again and I can't
Help but wish I could see your face

And I knew from the first note played I'd be breaking all my rules to see you
You smile that beautiful smile
And all the girls in the front row scream your name

So dim that spotlight, tell me things like
I can't take my eyes off of you
I'm no one special, just another wide-eyed girl
Who's desperately in love with you
Give me a photograph to hang on my wall
Superstar

Good morning loneliness
Comes around when I'm not dreaming about...

Livin' way up now in a penthouse high
Our steaks are rare and our martini's dry
Folks below they say it ain't fair
Hell with them, I really don't care
Joie de vivre, mon amie
Ain't this the life

Having a party on a big jet plane
I got so drunk that I could feel no pain
Hangin' out in Acapulco,
Drinkin' rum and sniffin' co-co
Pretty senorita look this way
Dancing through the night
Everything's alright
Girlfriend and a wife
Ain't this the life, Ain't this the life
Ain't this the life, baby, baby, baby . . .

Tropical island in the deep blue sea
The natives are friendly and the lobster's free
Sipping cognac like...

Ode to Danny
by ~The-Journalist

he sings to her
and my heart
twitches.
i almost wish
that it's me
that he'd sing to.
a voice like honey,
a mind like a labyrinth
a smile like flame and ice.

red-haired devil,
you have stolen my heart
and i'm not asking for it back.
ah, ye of the Wildean wit,
and of the double-edged tongue,
your psalms are recited by me each day.
you play god and the devil each day with my mind,
your works teasing my ears.

but he will never know me.
and each day,
my soul becomes less hopeful.
but oh, if he could only hear my words,
'twould be enough for me
and my soul
could live gracefully.

Dear danny
by ~AtlanaCullen

Dear Danny,
I never write stuff for just anyone.
But you deserve it.
With every letter I type.
With every word I read.
I hope one day you will see.
How much your music means to me.

Everyone else may listen to what they please.
As long as I have your music my mind is at ease.

So thank you, my dear friend.
For being who you are.
And making Music.
Thats just too good to be considered art.
Fore it is much more to me.

So here it is.
All I have ever really wanted to say.

Thank you for singing,
and that I will be a fan till the end.

Oh, Alice where have you been?
So near, so far or in between?
What have you heard what have you seen?
Alice, Alice, please Alice!

Oh, tell us are you big or small
To try this one or try them all
It's such a long, long way to fall
Alice, Alice, oh Alice!

How can you know this way not that?
You choose the door you choose the path
Perhaps you should be coming back
Another day, another day

And nothing is quite what it seems
You're dreaming are you dreaming, oh, Alice?
(Oh, how will you find your way? Oh, how will you find your way?)
(There's not time for tears today. There's no time for tears today.)...
