Yet another lyrics quiz to celebrate my having very little to do now exams are over.

Yes, indeed.  And you can also blame [livejournal.com profile] queenc2346 for doing another one in her state of boredom.  A nice round hundred under the cut because the playlist is enormous (like, 477 songs, minus random repeats and reprises) now I've added things, and there are bound to be some repeats from last time...  More musicals now, more of everything else, and some completely random.  I put this here for those bored, procrastinating, or both.  Good luck, my pretties.



1. You're still in bed at ten, and work began at eight.  You've burnt your breakfast, so far things are going great.  Your mother warned you there'd be days like these.
2. But I don't have the right to be with you tonight, so please leave me alone with no saviour in sight.
3. Say you'll love me every waking moment; turn my head with talk of summertime. (Which would be lovely, if I didn't despise the pairing so much. :P)
4. There was a boy - a very strange, enchanted boy.  They say he wandered very far, very far, over land and sea.  A little shy and sad of eye, but very wise was he.
5. Do you know where he lives?  Do you know what he lives on?  (I don't think that strictly counts as a song...)
6. Bid my blood to run, before I come undone: save me from the nothing I've become. (Yayyy!  *Saturday-remembrance bounce*)
7. But when worlds collide, said George Pal to his bride, I'm going to give you some terrible thrills... (Y'know, I think I might watch that later...)
8. You said that I would never let you be alone.  How many times have you been on your own?
9. When things get rough, he just hides behind his Buffy, now look, he's getting huffy, 'cause he knows that I know.
10. Forever be dozy and dim. I wake myself thinking of him.  Stop doing what you keep doing it to...
11. Heaven forbid average, whatever average means...
12. No matter where they take us, we'll find our own back.
13. Don't you love farce?  My fault, I fear.  I thought that you'd want what I want, sorry, my dear...
14. So now I'm stuck here for years, in the Delta Quadrant, I fear, with the Kazon and Hirogen and a brother with pointy ears.  I wanna go home.  Please, let me go home. Talaxian chicks are ugly: I wanna go home.
15. And I think about you all the time: is this Fate, is it my destiny?
16. I lost me some clothes, and my GP upped my dose.  I crave acclaim, not your simpering pity, baby, I won't give up the ghost.
17. You swear you'd feel much better if only summer'd last forever, but the sky is clear and you're nowhere near and rain is here again.
18. Those who have seen your face draw back in fear.  I am the mask you wear.
19. See the pyramids along the Nile.  Watch the sun rise on a tropic isle.  Just remember darling, all the while...
20. We're the same, you and me, it's in the air that we breathe.
21. *gasp* KYLE!!
22. I shake my pretty little head (shake my pretty little head), tap my pretty little feet.  (As a random aside - WHEE!  Danny John-Jules!!!)
23. So here we both are battling similar demons (not coincidentally), you see, in getting beyond knowing it solely intellectually, you're not relinquishing your majestry.

[I apologise profusely and prolifically in advance for number 24.  I was a bad, bad teenager. Thank you. *hides under a rock now*]

24. Far across the distance and spaces between us, you have come to show you go on.
25. You walk with stronger step, you walk with longer step, the worst is over...
26. What freedom owes the devil, to the devil I'll be due: I'll walk right down to Hell before I fall in love with you.
27. Today, the minutes seem like hours, the hours go so slowly, and still the sky is light.
28. She's made of real glass, she's got real, real emotion.
29. I'm wondering if anyone out there really cares about the curlers in your hair.
30. Scarecrows dressed in the latest styles, with frozen smiles to chase love away. (If I never see the damn lyrics to this damn song ever again, it'll be too soon.  Bloody impossibly long bloody chapter... *mutters*)
31. But before you read about it, before it gets distorted by those Hollywood piranhas, if you want to know the real facts... you've come to right party.
32. I've had twice the adventure, I've cried double the years, I've had two times the bad times in only half the years.  (I defy anyone to get this. :D)
33. We both know you and I have been through harder times, but now your silence seems a very different kind.
34. London never sleeps.  It just sucks the life out of me.
35. Comforter, philosopher, and lifelong shit.  Cunning little brain, regular Voltaire, thinks 'e's quite a lover, but there's not much there...
36. Somebody told me you'd found new 'bon homie', going places you'd never go with me.
37. Some will fall and some will live: will you stand up and take your chance?  The blood of the martyrs will water the meadows of France.
38. Hey, I'm not mad with you, guardian, I'm mad at myself for spending so much time with you and your Jeckyl and Hyde-ness.
39.  Men grow cold as girls grow old, but we all lose our charms in the end...
40. I wish I could say the right words to lead you through this land, wish I could play the father and take you by the hand, wish I could stay...
41. Something in my eye, or is it my imagination?  It's been a long time, gotta a lot of catching up to do.
42. It's not a cry you can hear at night, it's not somebody who's seen the light, it's a cold and its a broken Hallelujah...
43. She stopped going to church, she don't wanna go to school, she left with anger when he took her for a fool.
44. Believe me, I don't wanna go, and it'll grieve me 'cause I love you so, but we both know...
45. It's-a getting faster, everyone says go on up and ask her.
46. I need you, I need you, oh, I need you, like I need salt in my water, salt in my wounds, but I stay...
47. Hey, Hitler, what's the matter, little guy? *random German* Aww, you don't have a Christmas tree?
48. Does anybody even notice?  Does anybody even care?  (Gee, that's a tough one...)
49. There's no contracts binding, no bad scene beyond repair.
50. But dreaming is for moonrise, and moonlight ails these tired eyes...

That's the first half done. May do more at about midnight since I'll probably still be up.  Off you go, then... :)

I'm surprised you didn't get the first one...

Tee hee. They stopped using the whole song for the credits at about season 4, so probably nobody remembers it now...

Ahhh, that would be telling. You'll just have to wait until I post the answers.

That's true, it would be... Gah! Antici.........................................Pation.

Yeah, that's true...
