And if I die today I’ll be the happy phantom And I’ll go chasin’ the nuns out in the yard And I’ll run naked through the streets without my mask on And I will never need umbrellas in the rain I’ll wake up in strawberry fields everday And the atrocities of school I can forgive The happy phantom has no right to bitch Oo who- the time is getting closer Oo who- time to be a ghost Oo who- everyday we’re getting closer The sun is getting dim Will we pay for who we been So if I die today I’ll be the happy phantom And I’ll go wearin’ my naughties like a jew They’ll be my ticket to the universal opera There’s judy garland taking buddha by the hand And then these seven little men get up to dance They say confucius does his crossword with a pen I’m still the angle to the girl who hates to sin Oo whoo- the time is gettin closer Oo who- the time to be a ghost Oo who- everyday we’re getting closer The sun is getting dim Will I pay for who I been Or will I see you dear and wish I could come back You found a girl that you could truly love again Will you still call for me when she falls asleep Or do we soon forget the things we cannot see Oo who- the time is getting closer Oo who- the time to be a ghost Oo who- everyday we’re getting closer The sun is getting dim Will I pay for who I been And if I die today And if I die today And if I die today Chasin’ nuns out in the yard | |

Happy phantom Could also be "Happy Workers"! Do not hurry yourself in your spirit to become offended, for the taking of offense is what rests in the bosom of the stupid ones. (Ecclesiastes 7:9) | |

She's the best! Enjoy the ride.
I love most of the songs she's done. Really. Even her b-sides are album calibre. So my personal taste is pretty broad when it comes to her. It'd be better to recommend a particular album depending on what side of her you're digging. What do you have by her so far? | |

Tori probably ranks alongside Prince and MJ in being one of my favourite artists of all time.
Her music takes time, but it is so worth it. She is also a fascinating person in interviews. Going to see her at two shows in London next month... can't wait! | |

I suppose, though it would be odd to list as a favorite Tori song one on which she doesn't play the piano. | |
