  1. I am just a poor boy Though my story's seldom told I have squandered my resistance For a pocket full of mumbles Such are promises All lies and jests Still a man hears what he wants to hear And disregards the rest When I left my home and my family I was no more than a boy In the company of strangers In the quiet of the railway station Running scared Laying low, seeking out the poorer quarters Where the ragged people go Looking for the places Only they would know Lie la lie, lie la la la lie la lie, lie la lie Lie la la la lie la lie, la la la la lie Asking only workman's wages I come looking for a job But I get no offers Just a come-on from the whores On Seventh Avenue I do declare There were times when I was so lonesome I took some comfort there La la la la la la la Lie la lie, lie la la la lie la lie, lie la lie Lie la la la lie la lie, la la la la lie Then I'm laying out my winter clothes And wishing I was gone Going home Where the New York City winters Aren't bleeding me Leading me Going home In the clearing stands a boxer And a fighter by his trade And he carries the reminders Of every glove that laid him down Or cut him 'til he cried out In his anger and his shame "I am leaving, I am leaving" But the fighter still remains Lie la lie, lie la la la lie la lie, lie la lie Lie la la la lie la lie, la la la la lie Lie la la la lie la lie, lie la lie Lie la la la lie la lie, la la la la lie Lie la la la lie la lie, lie la lie Lie la la la lie la lie, la la la la lie Lie la la la lie la lie, lie la lie Lie la la la lie la lie, la la la la lie Lie la la la lie la lie, lie la lie Lie la la la lie la lie, la la la la lie Lie la la la lie la lie, lie la lie Lie la la la lie la lie, la la la la lie Lie la la la lie la lie, lie la lie Lie la la la lie la lie, la la la la lie Lie la la la lie la lie, lie la lie Lie la la la lie la lie, la la la la lie

  3. You were the apple of the public's eye As you cut the ribbon at the local mall A mirage for both you and us How can it be real? We love your body in that photograph, Your home state sure must be proud The queen of the United States, Or have you lost your crown Well aren't you Miss America Don't you Miss America Won't you Miss America Our love Well are you really who we think you are Or does that smile seem to wear you down Is the girl who you once were screaming to jump out And the dream that you must live, A disease for which there is no cure This roller coaster ride you're on Won't stop to let you off Well aren't you Miss America Don't you Miss America Won't you Miss America Our love Miss America, Miss America, Miss America Miss America, Miss America, Miss America Well aren't you Miss America Don't you Miss America Won't you Miss America Our love Well it's true just take a look The cover sometimes makes the book And the judges, do they ever ask To read between your lines And in your cage at the human zoo, They all stop to look at you Next year, what will you do When you have been forgotten Well aren't you Miss America Don't you Miss America Won't you Miss America Our love Miss America, Miss America, Miss America Miss America, Miss America, Miss America Miss America, Miss America, Miss America
  4. If I said what's on my mind You'd turn and walk away Disappearing way back in your dreams It's so hard to be unkind So easy just to say That everything is just the way it seems You look up at me And somewhere in your mind you see A man I'll never be If only I could find a way I'd feel like I'm the man you believe I am And it gets harder every day for me To hide behind this dream you see A man I'll never be I can't get any stronger I can't climb any higher You'll never know just how hard I've tried Cry a little longer And hold a little tighter Emotions can't be satisfied You look up at me And somewhere in your mind you see A man I'll never be If only I could find a way I'd feel like I'm the man you believe I am And it gets harder every day for me To hide behind this dream you see A man I'll never be Can't get any stronger And I can't climb any higher You'll never know just how hard I've tried Cry a little longer And hold a little tighter Emotions can't be satisfied You look up at me And somewhere in your mind you still see A man I'll never be If only I could find a way I'd feel like I'm the man you believe I am And it gets harder every day for me I can't keep hidin' this feeling
  5. Turn it up! Girl!

  7. Don't look back, ooh, a new day is breakin' It's been too long since I felt this way I don't mind, ooh, where I get taken The road is callin', today is the day I can see, it took so long just to realize I'm much too strong not to compromise Now I see what I am is holding me down I'll turn it around Oh, yes, I will I finally see the dawn arrivin' I see beyond the road I'm drivin' It's a bright horizon, ooh, and I'm awaken I see myself in a brand new way The sun is shinin', ooh, the clouds are breakin' 'Cause I can't lose now, there's no game to play I can tell there's no more time left to criticize I've seen what I could not recognize Everything in my life was leading me on But I can be strong Oh, yes I can I finally see the dawn arrivin' I see beyond the road I'm drivin' Ooh, far away, I'm left behind, left behind Oh, the sun is shining And I'm on that road Don't look back, ooh, a new day is breakin' It's been so long since I felt this way I don't mind, ooh, where I get taken The road is callin', today is the day I can see, it took so long just to realize I'm much too strong not to compromise Now I see what I am is holding me down I'll turn it around Oh, yes I will I finally see the dawn arrivin' I see beyond the road I'm drivin' I'm far away and left behind Don't look back Don't look back Don't look back Don't look back
  8. When I was nine I learned survival Taught myself not to care I was my single good companion Taking my comfort there Up in my room I planned my conquests On my own; never asked for a helping hand No one would understand I never asked the pair who fought below Just in case they said no Pity the child who has ambition Knows what he wants to do Knows that he'll never fit the system Others expect him to Pity the child who knew his parents Saw their faults Saw their love die before his eyes Pity the child that wise He never asked "Did I cause your distress?" Just in case they said yes When I was twelve my father moved out Left with a whimper, not with a shout I didn't miss him, he made it perfectly clear I was a fool and probably queer Fool that I was I thought this would bring Those he had left closer together She made her move the moment he crawled away I was the last the woman told She never let her bed get cold Someone moved in: I shut my door Someone to treat her just the same way as before I took the road of least resistance I had my game to play I had the skill, and more: the hunger Easy to get away Pity the child with no such weapons No defense, no escape from the ties that bind Always a step behind I never called to tell her all I'd done I was only her son! Pity the child but not forever Not if he stays that way He can get all he ever wanted If he's prepared to pay Pity instead the careless mother What she missed What she lost when she let me go And I wonder does she know I wouldn't call: a crazy thing to do Just in case she said who?
  9. I remember packed rooms and almost empty ones. I remember the sound, the noise, and the soundtrack being louder than the dialog.
  10. Baby, when I think about you I think about love Darlin', couldn't live without you And your love If I had those golden dreams of my yesterday I would wrap you In the heavens And feel it dyin' all the way (Dyin') I feel like makin' Feel like makin' love Feel like makin' love Feel like makin' love Feel like makin' love to you Baby, if I think about you I think about love Baby baby baby, if I live without you I live without love And if I had the sun and moon They were shinin' You know I would give you both night and day Love satisfyin' I feel like makin' Feel like makin' love Feel like makin' love Feel like makin' love Feel like makin' love to you And if I had the sun and moon They were shinin' You know I would give you both night and day Love satisfyin' I feel like makin' Feel like makin' love Feel like makin' love Feel like makin' love Feel like makin' love, love Feel like makin' love Feel like makin' love Feel like makin' love Feel like makin' love to you
  11. Depends on which source. The originals or the Chaykin books.
  12. Today you looked around to my heart's call This tiny life ain't been strangled after all Time, time, time, time Never ask what's become of us Just dedicate your sorrow Here and now To the soul of the sea And me Rushin' to me You turned around to my song's call You dreamer in the sand Just lie there laughing til the fall Kindest lover I can't stay alone tonight Bring me all your love Here and now Come rushin' to me Wake up late Without a smile Telephone rings You run like a child On the street Into the day The people I meet Have nothing to say No smile No sorrow No laughter No tomorrow They talk hen to hen They talk about their men And practice all the tricks for them Too soon nightime's coming on Deep in the darkness feeling alone No rain No seed No dreams No silence Far away today Mama ocean hold me to you Rock me on your waves And tell me... Is it all true? Time, time, time, time Never ask what's become of us Dedicate your sorrow Here and now To the soul the sea and me
  13. [WALTER] You take care you don't let Their shenanigans blind you And you're wrong to forget You've got your country behind you. [FREDDIE] You're a fool if you think you can wave a flag And inspire some dramatic action If I want bad enough then it's in the bag If I don't you're a mere distraction. [WALTER] You taught me, baby How the few who win acquire What their hearts desire It ain't practice, it ain't skill They'll help but not as much as wanting will. [FREDDIE] No contest, baby! Pay no mind to reputation You want concentration? When they pick him off the floor It's 'cause I wanted it a little more. [WALTER] You can win, you can lose Take or be a possession You taught me how to choose And the key is obsession. [FREDDIE] See my eyes, are they safe, are they even sane? Are they warm when they seem to greet you? You don't know, you can't tell, but it should be plain These are eyes that are gonna beat you Don't ever tell me I don't know the way to play it Do I have to say it? Doesn't matter what he tries I have him, you can see it in the eyes. [BOTH] No contest, baby! Barely any point in playing When it's just delaying What we both already know He lost it a woman and a half ago.
  14. When you're weary Feeling small When tears are in your eyes I'll dry them all I'm on your side Oh, when times get rough And friends just can't be found Like a bridge over troubled water I will lay me down Like a bridge over troubled water I will lay me down When you're down and out When you're on the street When evening falls so hard I will comfort you I'll take your part Oh, when darkness comes And pain is all around Like a bridge over troubled water I will lay me down Like a bridge over troubled water I will lay me down Sail on silver girl Sail on by Your time has come to shine All your dreams are on their way See how they shine Oh, if you need a friend I'm sailing right behind Like a bridge over troubled water I will ease your mind Like a bridge over troubled water I will ease your mind
  15. My understanding is Sheridan's capture and imprisonment was supposed to run longer, but the money shenanigans going on behind the scenes, JMS and crew wanted to finish up the story as much as possible since they didn't know there was going to be a s5. Then they got renewed/refunded and "gee, what are we going to do THIS season?".
  16. Forgive me I can't stay here anymore I'm leaving with the tide This evening another breeze blew round my door Stirred me up inside I'm breaking out of this tired old spell I played it out long and so well Oh whoa And the pheonix flies straight and high Back to Avalon Now I'm on my way back where I belong Gonna go there with the sun Back to Avalon Where I'm going all my demons disappear I'm leaving them behind I'm traveling way up on the atmosphere Cause I made up my mind Gonna find my love, gonna find my life Gonne look them so deep in the eye Oh whoa And the phoenix flies straight and high Back to Avalon Now I'm on my way back where I belong Gonna go there with the sun Back to Avalon Nobody knows what's inside my head Or down this road Whoa whoa I know I'm going home And the phoenix flies straight and high Back to Avalon Now I'm on my way back where I belong Gonna go there with the sun And the phoenix flies straight and high Back to Avalon Now I'm on my way back where I belong Gonna go there with the sun Back to Avalon
  17. Johnny Moon Dreams in class Answers the question before it's asked You can see Johnny but he's not here Nobody saw Johnny disappear Mother says his mama's too easy Letting him come and go as he pleases Walls and windows won't do it Lock the door Johnny goes right through it It's so hard to get his attention When he's out there in another dimension Johnny I wanna follow you outside I wanna feel that high It's so hard to get his attention When he's out there in another dimension Johnny, I wanna follow you outside I wanna feel that high Johnny, you, I can pretend with You're only one I can really bend with Take me 'cross the river Styx Fill my eyes with fire tricks Anything you got up your sleeve Anything you tell me, Johnny, I'll believe It's so hard to get your attention When you're out there in another dimension Johnny, I wanna follow you outside I wanna feel that high
  18. Never compromise. Not even in the face of Armageddon.
  19. Because it is still a skill?
  20. No limitation. GM handwavium at an appropriate (or inappropriate, for the player) time.
  21. I'm waiting to hear how he spins the beating the Hulk gave him into a victory for himself.
