Fireflies are evil! Or maybe just me

You would not believe your eyes
If ten million fireflies
Helped me take over the world tonight
Right after I cut the power
I’d use them to light my scour
ing of the land
While you would sit and cower

I’d like to make myself believe
I would be kind and lenient
I’d like to say I would spare your life
But I’m not one for reprieves
And you’d just be another mouth to feed

But I’d have some helping hands
Destroying at my command
It’s more fun when everything’s on fire
And as we all watch and see
Descent into anarchy
Our overwhelming social fragility

I’d like to make myself believe
This would have happened sometime
It’s hard to say I’m responsible
For everything you see
I only had the weapons you would need
To increase the speed

Why are you doing this to me
(You can’t get away from here)
I have friends and also a family
(Well not anymore I fear)
At least my soul is not quite so vile
(You can’t get away from here)
Even this is boring after a while

To ten million fireflies
Your job is done, so goodbye
The world is a much better place today
And if people ask me why
I killed their family I’ll
have them know I ran out of Earl Grey one day

I’d like to make myself believe
Those that survive now thank me
It’s hard to live when you just keep
Your boring same routine
‘Cause all those things are artificial scenes
To placate the sheep

I’d like to make myself believe
Some disagree with this way
It’s hard to say that this isn’t the
Best way, don’t you agree
‘Cause all the useless people are deceased
We’ve shed all the least

I’d like to make myself believe
That there are happy endings
It’s hard to find some evidence
So why be so naive
It’s cruel to try to constantly deceive

Another song I made a LONG time ago, and that I have just rerecorded.

Live piano, so it’s really mistake-prone. Enjoi.

Lyrics:

I returned a spiral staircase accidentally taken from the store
Before alarms installed in the front door
I came back to the court to tell them accidental, no intention
What would I do with a set of stairs anyway?
Did a large police force search warehouses and the junkyards for the staircase
And was taxpayer money used for the wild goose chase?
Now it’s over, I’m charged with grand larceny, and it’s time to go to jail
And I’ll get paroled and try not to steal from you

I will never be a kleptomaniac again
I’ll never try to steal something larger than my front door
I have to apologize for when I was 30 and I made my younger
Brother an accomplice to grand theft auto
Did a large police force search warehouses and the junkyards for the Bentley
And did the owner take the bad news gently?

Now it’s over, I’m charged with grand larceny, and it’s time to go to jail
And I’ll get paroled and try not to steal from you

So I will sit at home
All day long and you won’t
See me look suspiciously
At that house or that store
Ever anymore, and I’ll be paying in the line at the store

I returned a spiral staircase accidentally taken from the store
Before alarms installed in the front door
I came back to the court to tell them accidental, no intention
What would I do with a set of stairs anyway?
Did a large police force search warehouses and the junkyards for the staircase
And was taxpayer money used for the wild goose chase?
Now it’s over, I’m charged with grand larceny, and it’s time to go to jail
And I’ll get paroled and try not to steal from you

Recorded the day of release of Deathly Hallows. Only existed in a really crappy crappy crappy audio version…until now.

Parody of Withered Hope by They Might Be Giants.

Lyrics:

Severus Snape lives in Spinner’s End, Slytherin and bad, very sad man
Lily Evans says she is his friend to the end, But she doesn’t like Severus Snape
Today Snape got picked on by a bunch of Quidditch jocks, and she tried to defend him there
But he got mad at the four friends, and pulled out his wand, she restrained him there, he looked in her eyes that time, this is what he said:

Lily Evans, I’m in love with you
Want to live with you, all your life
Are you going to say to me this can never be?
Are you going to say to me, Lily, now?
Mudblood
Mudblood

Lily has found another soul mate
Lives in Godric’s Hollow with her son today
But then Voldemort kills Lily and James and Snape runs away to Dumbledore’s side
And 16 years later Snape’s dying there when he sees Lily’s son right next to him
Snape looks in his eyes one more time to catch a glimpse of Lily in Harry Potter’s eyes
(chorus)

LET’S DROP

Metro Station is a rather unsatisfactory bundle of crap. Drums, guitar, bass, and three patches which are easily mockable in MIDI.

It is your patriotic duty to reblog this if you are not a fan.

Lyrics

I meet her down at the store, we get to talking (we get to talking)
We go around, get some lunch, get some coffee 
And I was thinking she’s cool and that we could be friends (could be friends)
But what if she falls in love (let me go now)
This wasn’t what I dreamed up (here we go now)

Now if she gives you a kiss, do you kiss her right back?
Now if she brings you back home, how polite would you act?
Now if she wants to move in, would you let her unpack? (Come on)
Fake fake, fake fake-a fake it

Fake fake, fake fake-a fake it
Fake fake, fake fake-a fake it
Fake fake, fake fake-a fake it
Fake fake, fake fake-a fake it

Your lips tremble but your eyes are in a straight stare (straight stare)
We’re at the altar and I don’t know how we got there 
And I was thinking of everything that we’ve done (that we’ve done)
Well when will I fall in love (let me go now)
This wasn’t what I dreamed up (here we go now)

Now if she makes you mow the lawn, will you manage to stall?
Now if she wants to shoe shop, will you drive her to the mall?
Now if she asks for more kids, will you try to stonewall? (Come on)
Fake fake, fake fake-a fake it

Fake fake, fake fake-a fake it
Fake fake, fake fake-a fake it
Fake fake, fake fake-a fake it
Fake fake, fake fake-a fake it

I only wanted to ask you about the price of steaks
(I could tell that you were interested in more than cornflakes)
I was thinking I didn’t want to let you down hard
(People and relationships, we have no foresight in that regard)

Now if she’s claiming your love, would you care to refute?
Now if she questions your zeal, would you face the dispute?
Now if she asks how you are, will you tell her the truth? (No way, you)
Fake fake, fake fake-a fake it

Fake fake, fake fake-a fake it
Fake fake, fake fake-a fake it
Fake fake, fake fake-a fake it
Fake fake, fake fake-a fake it

Fake fake, fake fake-a fake it
Fake fake, fake fake-a fake it
Fake fake, fake fake-a fake it
Fake fake, fake fake-a fake it

Ten

of eighteen songs are now recorded in at least some form for Album II.

I might even have it ready to ship off by early November, which means it WOULD MAKE A PERFECT CHRISTMAS GIFT because I’m full of myself like that

I’m also up late.

My most recent creation, and probably the least silly of them all.

Indifference, the plague that has swept across and taken hold of 99% of our nation. People complain about various things about our country, but seldom take the time to think about those problems in depth, their roots, or what they can do to combat said problem. I tried to make this as nonpolitical as possible, but the point is that at its roots this is becoming in large part a political issue, and so that is unavoidable. Neither side is anywhere near innocent, though. Even if our ideologies are different, we should be able to agree on most of these things.

20 Things I Hate About America is a parody of Miley Cyrus’ 7 Things.
