----Bug's Song-----
Title: I Hope You Like It
Prompt Page: Modern Girl -> Beckton Gasworks -> 1984
Lyrics:
You must be pretty bored by now watching me
just watching tv eating sushi off the cushions of my couch
so I learned a couple poems and I recite them in the dark
and if you like them I can learn a couple more this time tomorrow
cause I'm feelin' pretty guilty for my 1 surveillance agent
who's assigned to watch me through the 1-way glass
as much as I don't want this you have clearly drawn the short straw
and no one deserves a punishment like that
So I hope you like it, like what I'm doin
the little puppet shows I put on just for you and only you
I hope you like it, like what I'm doin
just for you
I can't keep novels in the house but I can do dramatic readings
of the pamphlets that they slip under the door
I do a pretty good impression of the freedom secretary
but my minister of peace still needs some work
If you like it, let me know, flip the lights but if you don't
I can probably teach myself a dance or two
We can workshop things together, I wanna practice and get better
the man inside the mirror, this one's for you
So I hope you like it, like what I'm doin
the little puppet shows I put on just for you and only you
I hope you like it, like what I'm doin
just for you
And when the revolution comes and they rip you from my walls
I hope you never saw it coming when your jurisdiction falls
I hope the little song and dance that I distracted you with is
the final tune stuck in your head when the realization hits
So I hope you like it, like what I'm doin
the little puppet shows I put on just for you and only you
I hope you like it, like what I'm doin
just for you
---- Matt's Song -----
Title: The Thatcher Effect
Prompt Page: Modern Girl -> Picture Disc -> Optical Illusions
Lyrics:
Do you know that you talk in your sleep when I'm driving
Mumbling moaning mostly incoherent but
sometimes a phrase just slips out before you bite it off
I can't quite explain how it feels to be hearing you
Telling the truth after so many years
I could write you a letter or better put it in a song
You swear you're arriving
It looks like you're walking away
You blur my surroundings when I focus in on your face
Your features all scramble and change
The shadows are pulled centre-stage
Til I can't even see what I thought I saw yesterday
Do you know that you kinda look weird when you're smiling
It's all in your teeth, doesn't quite reach your eyes and
I bet with a little more practise you could have it down
The insides are all coming tumbling out
And the upsides are dwarfed by my towering doubts
And I can't take my eyes off this horrible mess we have found
It's not what it looks like
You say, that my senses are flawed
Look at this way, you'll see that it's nothing at all
I've come at it from every angle
What a brilliant trick you have pulled
I can't even see what I thought I saw yesterday
