Road to Somewhere - Goldfrapp

Walking down the Mercer St
Been a long hot summer
Rain like daggers coming
Down on me
Get a feeling it's too late
But alone, together, could
Be we might start it up
Allover again

Dream, dream you're not
Too late
Sweet road to somewhere else

Listen to the radio
Are you calling?

3 o'clock I'm on my way
On the road to somewhere
Little clouds like wounds
That blow away
Listening to the radio like a
Friend that guides me
Playing out every song
We used to know

Dream, dream you're not
Too late
Sweet road to somewhere else

Listen to the radio
Are you calling?

Bring it on
Come along
On the road to somewhere
Take our time
See the signs
On the road to somewhere

Pinky and The Brain

Brain: Thanks for agreeing to meet with me; I really feel you're the only one who can help. You see, after five years of unsuccessful attempts at world domination, I finally figured out where I was going wrong.
Pinky: Brain! Time to walk the sponge again!
Brain: In short, I need a new partner, one whose might is equal to my intellect. In return, I'm willing to let you have all of northern Europe.
Superman: You're kidding, right?
[Later]
Pinky: He turned you down, didn't he?
Brain: Who asked you?!

Verminator:
Hear me now, and listen laater. You are maaking me very aaangry. I don't need any fancy veapons. I vill destroy you vith my bare haands.
Pinky: Oh no, Brain, what'll we do? He has a bear named Hans!


***

Brain: The 24-hour deadline has passed, yet there has been no message from Earth! It is most curious. Perhaps I was too lenient.

Pinky: Either that or everyone's gone back to reading books.


***

Brain
: Are you pondering what I'm pondering?
Pinky: I think so, Brain, but instant karma's always so lumpy.

***

Brain
: Are you pondering what I'm pondering?
Pinky: Whoof, oh, I'd have to say the odds of that are terribly slim, Brain.
Brain: True.
Pinky: I mean, really, when have I ever been pondering what you've been pondering?
Brain: To my knowledge, never.
Pinky: Exactly. So, what are the chances that this time, I'm pondering what you're pondering?
Brain: Next to nil.
Pinky: Well, that's exactly what I'm thinking, too.
Brain: Therefore, you are pondering what I'm pondering.
Pinky: Poit, I guess I am!

A & E - Goldfrapp

It's a blue, bright blue Saturday, ay, ay
And the pain has started to slip away, ay, ay
I'm in a backless dress on a pastel ward, the shining.
Think I want you still but it may be pills at work

Do you really wanna know how I was dancing on the floor?
I was trying to phone you when I'm crawling up the door
I was amazed at you, the things you say that you don't do
Why don't you ring?

I was feeling lonely, feeling blue
Feeling like I needed you
Like I'm waking up surrounded by me
A&E

It's a blue, bright blue Saturday, ay, ay
And the pain has started to slip away, ay, ay
I'm in a backless dress on a pastel ward that's shining
Think I want you still but it may be pills at work

How did I get to accident emergency?
All I wanted was you to take me out high

I was feeling lonely, feeling blue
Feeling like I needed you
Like I hoped you'd call and hoped you'd see me
A&E
