Hello Lex song

[hils]

OMG! This song is so Lex. Future!Lex who is evil but still into Superman


Welcome to my secret lair on Skullcrusher Mountain
I hope that you've enjoyed your stay so far
I see you've met my assistant Scarface
His appearance is quite disturbing
But I assure you he's harmless enough
He's a sweetheart, calls me master
And he has a way of finding pretty things and bringing them to me

I'm so into you
But I'm way too smart for you
Even my henchmen think I'm crazy
I'm not surprised that you agree
If you could find some way to be
A little bit less afraid of me
You'd see the voices that control me from inside my head
Say I shouldn't kill you yet

I made this half-pony half-monkey monster to please you
But I get the feeling that you don't like it
What's with all the screaming?
You like monkeys, you like ponies
Maybe you don't like monsters so much
Maybe I used too many monkeys
Isn't it enough to know that I ruined a pony making a gift for you?

I'm so into you
But I'm way too smart for you
Even my henchmen think I'm crazy
I'm not surprised that you agree
If you could find some way to be
A little bit less afraid of me
You'd see the voices that control me from inside my head
Say I shouldn't kill you yet

Picture the two of us alone inside my golden submarine
While up above the waves my doomsday squad ignites the atmosphere
And all the fools who live their foolish lives may find it quite explosive
But it won't mean half as much to me if I don't have you here

You know it isn't easy living here on Skullcrusher Mountain
Maybe you could cut me just a little slack
Would it kill you to be civil?
I've been patient, I've been gracious
And this mountain is covered with wolves
Hear them howling, my hungry children
Maybe you should stay and have another drink and think about me and you

I'm so into you
But I'm way too smart for you
Even my henchmen think I'm crazy
I'm not surprised that you agree
If you could find some way to be
A little bit less afraid of me
You'd see the voices that control me from inside my head
Say I shouldn't kill you yet
I shouldn't kill you yet
I shouldn't kill you yet

Okay, that's pretty much... the best thing I've ever read. XDDD This is an actual song? Who sings it? *must to find*

[hils.livejournal.com]

Hee! Yes, it's a real song by Jonathan Coulton

If you can't find it let me know and I'll upload for you

[solar-cat.livejournal.com]

Thanks! I managed to snag it off iTunes; it's totally on my CLex mix now. XD

[hils.livejournal.com]

OOH! You have a CLex list? Any chance of seeing a track list?

[solar-cat.livejournal.com]

I could do that. It's partially composed of a CLex fanmix I got... somewhere, plus some songs I added on my own. Lemme type out the tracklist and I'll comment again. ^^

OOH! Some good stuff on there! I shall have to download a bunch of these at the weekend

[solar-cat.livejournal.com]

I think it hits just about the right blend of Whee! and ANGST that one would expect from CLex. *lol*

[hils.livejournal.com]

Yes, it does. A perfect mix. I like it.

[eleclya-m.livejournal.com]

Heehee, I had a feeling you would like that song XD Everyone in my house keeps singing it, it's brilliant. You should try some other Jonathan Coulton songs like Re Your Brains, he's so fun

[hils.livejournal.com]

I have Re Your Brains already *g*

[ladydreamer.livejournal.com]

We used to play that song on repeat here.

I wanted to do a vid with it, but I'd have to cut a verse and I don't know which one to cut!!

[hils.livejournal.com]

Hee! So long as it's not the one about the pony/monkey monster ;)
